Default Help to make a dolly for a 67 Camaro shell..pics?

I bought some square steel stock and I am going to make a rolling dolly for my 67 Camaro shell for when I remove all the parts. I don't want to reinvent the wheel and I would appreciate some ideas and better yet a few pics !! Any good ideas out there?? or is there a link of an old thread that someone can hook me up with?

Thanks Guys!!

I've never taken a close at these set-ups, but this dolly/jack-up to rotisserie system looks really cool and simple!!

Please show close up of rear brackets/arms engaging spring eye holes......Did you make special bushings for those holes or just use spring rubbers ????

Maybe original question was looking for body cart, not rotissiere????

I was thinking of a body cart....in order to paint the shell with no obstructions..and also it is a lot less room in the garage....I hope someone can help with that

I actually had a rotisserie...

and Chuck I made the rear brackets. I started with sq tubing about 10 " long that fit over the existing two 'arms' of the rotissirie and welded stop bolts. I welded I believe 2" sq tubing perpendicular to extend under the two framerails...and then welded vertically (2) 1/4 " plates with drilled holes to simulate the shackles.... I re-installed the bushings and with bolts attached the cars like that.

It worked great...I sold the rotisserie or I would send pics...hope that helps though...
