Build a ramp system inside the shop with as much height as your ceiling will
allow. Construct it in a manner that will allow it to be put up or taken
down using pins or bolts. In the same manner, attach it to the floor with
enough support that will allow a wench system to load and unload the
vehicle. Get two cheap Harbor Freight dollies for moving it to a storage
location.
Send the stuff ASAP after it hatches.

The first person to submit a SENSIBLE and CONSTRUCTIVE suggestion will
