Let's see here...

Not a gated community, but the HOA is strict - you can't even park in the street at night or have weeds for more than 2 days before they fine you!


Can't lay cement or asphault - already asked and got the, "You want to do what with my daughter?" reaction!!!

Do you live in a community or prison? I typically run dont walk from HOA's such as this. If its city property thiers not much the landlord can do but maybe bitch to the city, if its his then its his responsiblity to fix anything broken.

Politics suck...that's all I can say! If I end up buying the house, which I probably will, then I'll definitely put in something in permanently...but in the meantime...

Does anyone have a similar problem and a creative solution???

i still say do that whole cover of darkness thing. make the ramp out of concrete and then when they complain just say "i swear to god officer, i don't know how that got there"

i don't think theres much they can do if you do that.

...you see officer...it is just a coincidence that these ramps made of concrete are exactly the dimensions necessary to allow a lowered Stang into a garage such as mine!

I swear it!

I'm going on ebay now to see what I can find!

If you can't find anything I might be able to fabricate ramps to your specific specifications/dimensions you need, depending on what you want them to be made out of PM if interested and can't find what you need on the internet.

there is a saw that cuts concrete at severe angles for your very problem....ask if that is possible and you can get that done real easy for relatively cheap......looks good to so the HOA doesn't get pissed

I've asked about several different possible modifications to the "stock" curb as I will call it from here on out, and the resounding answer was, "NOOOOOOOO"!!!

Does anyone have those low profile ramps for working on their Stangs? I wonder if a set of those would work if I cut the back end off - the completely elevated part?
