I plan to build an additional 2 car garage onto the house in the coming years but until then I picked up these wheel Dolly's from harbour freight for $100 and  I can push the charger all the way against the wall and shoe horn in 2 more cars! While it works it is a bit tight, but if you guys have a car that simply "hibernates" during the winter these lil' suckers are money well spent!

Yeah they are I have hem under my 69 so I can move it around in the single bay garage when I need to.

So do you crawl into the windo DOH style to get in the vehicles? There must be some order in which they must be removed or it doesn't work I assume.

I bought a REALLY CHEAP set of car dollies from a local Big Lot store thinking it would be okay under a much lighter, empty shell of a car, not a complete one with it's drive train. If I recall, I paid $35/pair & bought 2 pair for $70. The piece itself is fine, it's sturdy as well as being very wide for a big tire on the car, but the metal casters on them absolutely sucked. I tried it out on my '71 Scamp & you'd literally need 2 or 3 people to move a car around without any trouble.

I had to use a cable puller hooked to the wall to get the casters to pivot in the direction I wanted.  :lol:  I waited until Harbor Freight had a sale on better casters & offered free shipping, & then bought 16 larger & better ones with some other supplies. I spent around another $50 for the better casters that had a bigger diameter & a rubberized surface. I still spent a lot less in total compared to some of the high end dollies, but I would recommend just buying a better set from the beginning.

I start with the red one by the door, pull that out, then the 4 runner, then move the charger. It's tight but I'm getting used to it... at least I KNOW no one is going to steal the Charger!

They work great. I got the '71 sitting on dollies right now. Makes it much easier to work on too. You can move the car side to side if you need more room on one side. You better be careful parking that close to the car. We don't want to hear that you were mauled to death by a bear. (Hi moparsuebear  :wave:)
