BodyShell Transport/Maneuvering

[CraigyBoy]

What solutions have people come up with to move a bare shell around? By around I mean on and off trailers and around a workshop.

At the moment I'm thinking of a heavy duty pallet with four castors.

The shell is a classic mini.

i have a frame with 4 casters on that i use to move stuff around and plan to build up a land rover chassis on

muscle power!! I took a Triumph Stag bodyshell to the sandblasters many years ago, it took 4 of us to lift it on and off the trailer, but it worked!!

But I guess general moving about, a nice frame on casters sounds about right

Just use reasonable diameter castors though, 75mm+

Somerfield bread trolleys I jacked my chassis up one end and put a trolley with some 4x2 across it is the middle then lowered it down so it balances and you can spin it round in it's own length.
