    Carr Dolly

    I saw picture of a wooden car dolly that someone built on this forum.  I was wonder what you used to build this dolly.

    Terry - I have a set of the wheel dollies.  I just find that it's hard to move the car around on them.  I think the wheels are just to small.

    Clown - You have what I need but I want to make it out of wood.  I think I can adapt your metal dolly to what I need.

    Thanks,

    Walt

    I took the cart that I used when doing the sheetmetal work and turned it into my rotisserie.

    Clown, your last pic sealed the deal.  Now I know how to build my dolly.

    DB, your pic got me to thinking on how to install the engine.  Did you lift the engine up with a trans jack?

    I lowerd the car down onto the k frame.

    The second time I attached the trans also before I lowered it. Worked pretty slick.
