Car dollies

These seems like a crazy bargain to me, will be ideal while restoring my tin top.

Don't really have a use, but that's a fair reduction.

I want some 'display ramps' at that sort of price!


These have been re-listed for about the last two months, but the seller still wants 200quid for a pair collected.

time to get the welder out then - they shouldn't be that hard to make


same would be true for the dollies - but the cost of the wheels alone can be more than the pre-made ones
mind you if its just for sevens or other light weight cars then you'll probably get away with the small 50kg rated casters which seem to be a fair bit cheaper (4 casters = 200kg per dolly or ~800kg total)

I really want to put a pair under the rear wheels of a fwd and take it for a few laps of the carpark

You say that, but there's a fair bit of angle iron in there, you could use less of you make it so it would only take a Severn but theres for the 20quids odd worth,

the trick is to keep your eyes open for suitable scrap that costs you nothing or any leftover tube from building the chassis
