Looks like Pastel Yellow. When I was selling cars, we had a 993 Cab in that color. It was spectacularly nice car.... and I couldn't give it away...

Wow that's a cool pair. I'm surprised to see that the 991 Turbo actually is very similar height to the old Boxster, not as big as people say. How do you like the Boxster? Some of the asking prices make them very tempting...

Anyone know of a 4 post storage lift that would fit into a garage with 8' ceilings? What manufacturer should i start with?

Putting a 70 240Z up top and a Spec Boxster under, or vice versa some days.
This is my favorite thread on RL.

Don,t think you will get one Brainofjjj the side post on the hoist alone are generally around 8 feet tall and if you want to stack two P cars you will need close to 10 feet ,,4.5 feet for each car and some clearance for good measure ,,,,,I have seen small lifts that will give you some height to work on a car in an 8' space but you options are limited with your low ceiling height ....

I have two BendPak HD9s and their columns are 88" tall. So 10" to spare. Some threaded parts poke through the column tops by a few inches.

My Bison 8000 FP four-post lift also has 88" columns.

Unfortunately, if your ceiling is only 8' then I doubt you'll fit a 240Z (~50") over a Boxster (~51"). The lift ramps are 4" and you'll want at least 1" of head room for each car. That's a total of 106" (8' 10").

Anyhow, good luck.
