Chassis dolly with casters


Dionk

Recommended Posts

Thanks guys.  I have casters and a welder friend.  Two questions

 

1. Where do you get the metal? Home Depot? Lowe’s?

 

2. How are you attaching them to the car? I assume you are bolting it through the subframe bolt holes?

 

thanks

Yes, subframe bolt holes. My welder friend had some scrap steel.

Anyone build a a dolly of sorts to move the chassis around the garage?

 

any pictures?  

Are you looking for something to use for transport or just in your garage?  If transport then definitely steel but I made this one from wood for use in the garage for a different project.  Getting the shell to a good height is a major back saver and removes most of the excuse not to cleanup your mess at the end of the day.  What type of work will you be doing?

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
