Best ways of moving a parts car without wheels & suspension

[P Arkus]

I will most likely be getting a car soon that I plan on parting out in my garage. With the limited space I have, I thought it would be best to put something underneath that will allow the car to be moved around. The auto dolly is a great idea for a parked car with wheels, but has anyone ever used it by placing the frame or the car on the dolly? I've also read about using a couple furniture dolly's and mounting a big sheet of wood on top to bolt them together, then placing the car on those.

Anyone else have any ideas on how to move a car around? Lets hear your thoughts!

Dollies work under the frame. That or just lift it if its a shell

Well i'm hoping it will be a shell eventually haha. Thanks for the tips! Sean, i'll see what I can figure out and might take you up on that offer. It wont be a couple months though. Hoping 2 weeks max. Not trying to really make money off this one.

If you want pictures or anything let me know. It is about 4' x 4' with castors near the corners. Made of 4"x4" lumber. Top of the frame sits about 12"-13" off the ground to allow you to get under it somewhat still.

Cherry picker on corners, and place dollys under the frame.

Ralleyquattro (Martin P. of www.quattro.ca) uses one of these for each subframe. Might need to make brackets to fit perfect.

It's snowing again. Put it on the roof and slide it.

Funny I was thinking the same thing. I just have a couple things to get off my parts car so I can get rid of it. Maybe I can borrow Sean's set up if you are going to be awhile Pat?

Get buff and you won't need any tools to move it.
