Hey gang...
Looking to build a dolly system for my '68 Charger to support it while the suspension isn't on it. Also, a dolly for the engine/k-member/tranny all-in-one to build upon prior to body mating. The gist of what I'm looking for is in these two pictures.... One for the body and another for the engine/tranny combo....

Cheers,
Troy

Great links.. I saw the first one and it didn't really meet my spec's for the front of the car, but Kori's link is great !!!!  I forgot about those pictures..

Thanks guys for the ideas...........  I'm going to buy the casters today.. Get 4 swivel with about 500 lbs load per with brake. Also, getting two with the swivel lock as well so it'll be easier for me to maneuver by myself.  Like the 4 swivel function with lock since it'll enable me to pivot the car in a circle in the middle of my garage...

I also want the forward attach point to use the bumper brackets and protrude forward away from the k-member mounting points so I can lower the car unto the engine/tranny/suspension assembly...
Because it will protrude forward, I can use the crossmember of the forward dolly unit as a lift point....

This one isn't mine, but I like the idea behind it. http://www.crazyeightlift.com/
