Thanks for the compliment   s:D :D s:D    It's actually kind of disorganized for my tastes.

I hope to redo the floor sometime soon (strip it, the apply heavy duty garage floor paint).  When I bought the house this garage was just used for storing the previous owners lawn equipment and random crap.  So, since them I've cleaned it up, installed new/brighter lighting, added some paint...trying to make it a much more 'receptive' home for my MR2   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

Is it a custom hoist, or one of the ones you can get for an mx5/mgf?

Got my wall hooks installed the other week, they work as specified. Great for any wall hanging option but I would suggest that if you were fixing to anything but brick (like a shed wall for example) a batten fixed securely first might be a good idea
