    bare tub storage?

    I just purchased a tub for a future project. It was sandblasted and primed. Its pretty solid but needs work on the front apron drivers floor and rear quarter panels. The current owner is going to weld in some supports to keep it straight during transport. Is there a dolly that I can buy or build to place it on so I can move it around in my garage? Looking for ideas? Also, Im renting a trailer to pick it up and the owner is loading it with a tractor. Will an engine hoist lift it to get it off?

    Thanks for the help!

    I built a rolling platform when I had mine off. 6 heavy duty castors, some 4x4s and 2 2x8x10' planks. I have a cherry picker and a bunch of floor jacks if you need a hand unloading.

      Pops gave me an old frame. Since I am going to build a custom frame, I just welded legs with casters on it. The best thing was I had all the materials laying around.

        Reinforce the door openings so it doesnt tweek on you and lift it from the seat mounting or seat belt holes. Its not that heavy. I lifted mine with seats and tail gate were still on.
