Looking for a Body cart

#1 Post by Shel Hart »

I have been looking for a rolling body cart to use while restoring. I looked at Eastwood and they have a couple options. Want something to attach to torsion tubes that give me 2.5 to 3 feet in air with large casters to roll it. Any other pre fabricated solutions?

Did anyone end up getting the Stoddard Car Dolly with 356 adapter? If so, how's it been? I'm having difficulty from their (lack of) 356 photos telling where it mounts and what it will impede access to.

I have one in Cincinatti. Pete Posamato built it to do the restoration on my Speedster. I had to buy it when I moved the car from Chicago to Cincy to be assemble and finished. Car is on it's wheels and the carts usefullness is pretty slim for me. I would be happy to sell for about half of Stoddard price.
