What do you call this thing? It's some kind of dolly-trolley-trailer-truck.

I had my '71S on this for a year. I could move it anywhere with engine and tranny installed. It would hold a lot more car or project.

Anyway, it's for sale locally. It's one heavy sum b!tcH. Bring a trailer or a truck, ramps and winch and a couple hundred bucks. Looking at McMaster Carr, I see the casters are pricey.

When I know what to call it, I'm putting it on the PartsFS section. I could do CraigsList, but I'd rather see a Pelican get it.

Milt, we have something similar and it is known as "the wagon". Quite handy as you said.

Looks like a Railway Express Wagon.

It does have a short tongue and there is a hitch ball on the other end, so it was used like a luggage train at the airport. But this is one heavy duty MoFo. I suspect it is from a factory because of the solid tires. It wouldn't be all that good outside on asphalt.

That is really cool! I can see one of the Porsche shops wanting something like that! I wonder if Henry Schmidt needs something like that?

If you were nearby I'd be all over this...

Milt, I'll be in LA night of April 28 connecting back to Boston. Will it fit on a plane? :D

Maybe....
What is the name of that cheap engine freight business.

I've seen moving companies tack on something extra to fill out a load. I shipped a piano that way once to AL.

At least it doesn't need a cart to move it. ;)

Yep.

Used to see them by the 'Fred Harvey' restaurant at the Santa Fe (AT&SF) Depot.

Would hook 4-5 of them together pulled by a little tractor.

My son would love that! Anything with wheels. If we were closer I'd make an offer.


Reminds me of one of these...
