He thinks they're cool and racey. I'm not digging them.

Well, they are LeMans headlights and covers...but they only look good when done right on a certain kind of Vette. His isn't one of them.

Well, the magnets are in the mail! I had to make sure to check that the envelopes wouldn't stick to the metal mailbox before dropping them in. I could just imagine them sticking to the sides and never getting to the bottom of the box for collection...

The red one is pretty tough looking
one huge disadvantage of being my size ....is I don't have enough strength to push cars around and move heavy stuff where I want it. So I have to get creative and figure out ways to let a machine do the work
I am going to attempt to build a set up like this to move body shells in the shop

I am thinking harbor freight has the casters ....then I need, maybe a 4 feet of square tube
I already have the plate metal
I would like to do 100. bucks out of pocket and maybe 6 hours of work

Yep, she's got skillz.
I think I will build 3 sets ....one set now, built specifically for a 63 to 75 A body car
then later a different set made for B-body wagon size
then a real heavy duty for the polara ...if I ever even get that deep into the polara.
I am thinking the polara is a different deal all together because I am not even sure if the C- body is a full frame or different type set up

Lowes and home depot also carry the casters if you want to price compare.

Just as an FYI, you can get a set of 4 of these for $108...
New Set of (4) Auto Dolly Car Dolly Wheel Tire 12"x16" Skate 6000lb Repair Slide | eBay
that is good to know but I am thinking of the ones that bolt to the body with no suspension
I am planning to strip them down that far for paint
like this
I have a set of those, fine on a smooth surface. Not so much if you have to run over a bump. Switched my wheels to pneumatic. Cost as much as I paid for the units but easier to roll.

ever use them? they make it easier by yourself - but still not truly easy..

what ones did you switch to? I have that exact issue with mine

Yeah, I was figuring with these you could use them both with cars on wheels and fabricate some body frame adapters to sit on the dollies when the car is just a shell. I figured it would be pretty easy to fab up some frame adapters that bolt to the dollies when you want them.
