I need an 88 cradle, any condition. Northeast location preferred.

Or: Need to borrow/rent one for a few months in order to move a roller 88 car into storage and later out of storage after a few months.

We had fabricated dollies (front and rear) for moving cars as well.

We used large diameter pneumatic tire casters so we could go on and off the trailer, or on unpaved surfaces.

Inexpensive and worked well.

By the way all Fiero rear subframes are interchangable,,,, that is they all bolt up to the same holes.

Thanks to everyone for the ideas. I'm moving and need to first store the Alden Thomas GTO on one place and later to another. As a roller it will simply be much easier to move around.

The LS3 is already mounted on the modified powder coated cradle. I'm going to remove the LS3 and F40 and then reinstall the cradle alone. This will allow me to attached the wheels, struts, etc. The axles will be suspended by slings.

Thanks everyone.
