Anyone made a body dolly for their car? I'm looking to start my drivetrain swap this summer and want to retain the ability to move the shell around in the driveway. Only really worried about dimensions and keeping it balanced, but open to your suggestions, particularly in the area of safety. Here's a pic of something sort of what I was thinking.

PaintedMan, regarding safety. The wood really works nice, if your removing front suspension before engine the front will become very light (like a 911). Adding a few hundred pounds of bagged water softener salt or sand to the front trunk will help. Best, Mark
