Mid Year Body Dolly Plans - Corvette Restorer 1986

[Joseph G.]

I am looking to build a body dolly as perthe plans detailed in the Corvette Restorer magazine from 1986, 13.1. Any chance that someone has that back issue laying around and could share the plans? I don't like the dolly design in the Noland Adams manual. Thanks!

I made one out of wood. It easily withstood multiple 90 mile trips to a paint shop in an enclosed trailer.... Used it for a couple of years. After which I burned it because it took up floor space in my garage. Would require a modification if using on a convert (additional support for the rear body mounts), a coupe doesn't need this.........

I used the article and built one for myself. Best investment I have made as you can completely do any body work including replacing the front end and it will fit the chassis! Only problem people have bugged me wanting to buy the Body Dolly! Ain't for sale!

Of course I am partial to my design ;-) Restorer Fall '89 Volume 16 #2.

May be an alternative for you.
