Ok guys. Now we're cooking with gas.

I'm thinking some glue lam beams added vertically along the inside wall of my garage to keep the wall from oil canning and a couple of glue lam beams along the ceiling (attached to the trusses above) to distribute the horizontal and vertical loads.

Mount the race car transporter load deck mechanism (TBD) to the wall to raise the car and the cantilevered racking arms mounted to the wall ( a la Denbeste) to support the car up in the air once it's raised into position.

Obviously still conceptual. I'll have to call in a few favors from engineer/architect friends.

Cheers
Greg
