Car Dollies

Been looking at getting a set of car dollies to move the Nova around in the garage easier. Good ol' Harbor freight has some cheap ones - anyone use them? How about the ones that you can jack up using just the dolley?

I had a set of the Harbor Frieght dollies and the second time I used them 3 of the 4 lost the wheels.
The car was a Mark 8 and might have been to heavy.

I have a Sumitt set at home for the Mustang and they work good.

I have the Harbor Freight dolly's and they workbut it takes 2 people to move the car. I say save your money and get a better set.

These are better.

Skip the Harbor Freights - gotcha...

Been thinking also about making something larger so that it can sit with the weight off the suspension, like jackstands with wheels on them or something.

BTW - Don was good to see ya last weekend and great that you're feeling better now.


Maybe make something like this...

I've got some cheapies that don't work worth a dime. With better quality casters, they would probably work OK.
