First off I have to thanks to Nick T. A DDK memeber who had already made a trolly and I followed suit but made a few changes along the way. At the time I was working like a mad man so I just made it as I went along and didn't take too many photo's so you will have to make up the missing bits.

What I will say is the Trolly has transformed how I work on the car now. My 10ft by 20ft work shop is more like 30ft by 20ft because of it. As you don't need to work on all four sides at once. So I push the car to one side and then I have so much more room.

The metal I got from a web site in the UK called metal super market.

A US idea and it is a great idea. You work out what metal you want and take your drawings down to them and they charge for what you want. They cut it for you and you just pop it in the trunk/boot of your car and drive home.

1st off you need to get make a shopping list of the metal to use.

I used some 1" x 1" box section for the front uprights and some 2" x 2" angle iron for the support as show in the picture. I cut a " V " out the top of the box section to help make it secure for welding. Then I used some 1" x 2" box section to make the rest of the frame. I also added on extra support for the the uprights just make it extra secure.

The rear of the car I wanted to have as little in the way as possible. So I used the little ledge that Porsche made. It just worked out right on my car. So I used the box section to support the car and the flat bar to secure it in place and stop it falling off.

I angled the box section to spread the load. Please note I know my torsion area is strong metal so I could rest it on there. If your car is in need of repair you might want to make it different.

The flat bar that you see in the drawing is used to add support by welding it on at an angle.

Also I have used the flat bar as a joiner. I welded it on the ends of the box section and drilled holes in them as a pair so I could bolt them togeather. The whole trolly is made in a way you can unbolt it and transport it in a car.

These two pictures link to another page with Very big images. So if you want a close up look it will take some time to down load but worth the close up pictures to take note of how I made it.

The wheels are the most important bit. "Skimp on the money buying these and you will need to push more!!!! "

These are 4" wheels heavy weight and braked

Have fun making this I can't tell you how much it has made my work on the car so easy. The car by the way is 1/2 meter off the ground.

The metal cost about £70 ish $110 and the wheels cost me £50 $73

The best thing is the wheels I had smaller wheels and once I got over my bad back and head failure pushing it.. I got bigger ones..

Remember play safe work safe and if in doubt get some one else to make it
