I was a bit worried about the car shifting on the 'trolleys' which is why I thought I'd physically bolt them to the car. My plan was to use something like a roof beam say 6-8 inches wide by 1.5-2 inches thick and bolt it to the crossmember location at the front and another similiar piece bolted to the rear (in a location yet to be determined). With the castors attached to it via some decent coach screws I'm hoping its not going to cause problems.

I doubt the car does weigh very much with it completely gutted, but the mobile assembly still has to take my weight as well and be stable enough for me to be crawling around on the inside doing what needs to be done.

The castors should be turning up today so I'll see if I can post some pics of my success/failures.

Thanks again for the help

Cheers,
Dan

PS: I liked the skateboard idea, but I've always been a nerd and never owned one... and I think my wife gave hers away... oh well Cool
