    Yea that sucks, but the car looks good, and that's all that really matters.

    I have to run the front up on planks.I then jack the rear till it's level,block the planks up then run it in.The stuff beside it is an old side from my scotty rolled up.It's not load bearing.

    go and grab your self some cold patch (pavement repair compound its CHEAP!). and build two runners right where your wheels ride at to get your ass up in there.

    build long, low angle ramps... or,
    look at the metal ramps that trailer queens use. they are light weight and easy to use. when not in use, just slide them under the car.
    bada-bing!

    The planks work just fine.I didn't want it to fill-up with rain when the big storm goes over.(not that the roof keeps it dry inside [​IMG])

    Ahhh, safety first at our job sites! What is a finger, leg, head, quart or two of blood between friends. It smells like someone crapped themselves. PLAN9?

    Haha! I did get a kick out of that. [​IMG]

    I would definitely lay some concrete at the edge of the garage and build a ramp. Yeah, you're renting, but when do you realistically expect to own a garage? If it's two months away, fine, but that's a DANGEROUS waste of time to get the car in.

    Thanks for the ideas all.I just wanted you to see what a pain in the rear it is for me to move that thing.Believe me,I've thought of all kinds of solutions.No matter what I do I'll have to level it with the jack.
