Reading the comments I see a few questions and engineering improvements. However, the wheel has many improvements today verses 12,000 years ago.LOL Great idea.
the centering of the body is easy....just find the middle left to right and move to the upper part of the firewall in the back messure to the middle of the rear.
The elco that on the video is my 1965 it was in tha grass for about 15 years and looked pretty good on the outside but when the floors were gone. so I had to come up with something.......and here it is.
sorry i've been out ......in answer to some of the questions...
The wheels on it work great long as your rolling in and out of the garage. turning is an issue and you need to be carful if you pull to hard to the left or right that the c clip that hold the wheels on dont pop off and you loose a wheel, it has happened to me.
sorry i've been out ......in answer to some of the questions...
one set of outrigers is all thats needed in fact it will turn without them with no issues its more a safety issue, I dont want to have to be picking this thing off the ground.
So how hard was it to find the center axis to spin and balance the body? Nice idea but I'd put out rigger legs on the rear stand also.Does it roll fairly easily with those small wheels? Necessity is the mother of invention.
anybody know the name or where i could find that drill operated one?

Do you have any plans for this? I would love to get them. I need one and your right $1800 is about the norm. I need that money for the car.
