Hi guys ... my friend helped me film a video of me putting the car on dollies and then moving it across the garage. While they seem kinda expensive to buy initially, do not underestimate just how valuable they are in terms of being able to loan yourself extra space at a moments notice!
If anyone hasn't got any yet, but wants to see how easy and great they are, here is the video!

Glad to see you've got your safety slippers on mate. Not critisising one bit, just made me chuckle. Good to see you're still hard at it, lovely car that.

Even though the garage is warm(er), I hate having cold feet, and the instant slip on / slip off ability to enter the house is a great time saver. Not sure the H&S inspectors would pass me though And cheers man! I love this car a helluva lot! lol Hopefully you'll see me drive it someday

I have a pair of skates I got free from a skip, just needed two new wheels which I got from the same skip and they have been invaluable in moving cars about.

Yeah! Obviously from getting some free publicity xD To be fair if you can afford it, the ones with auto-jacking are really cool but obviously is another cost. I'll remain a pleb though haha

skates (workshop dolly) and GO'jacks are two different things. Skates are as pictured in the o/p's vid to use them you need to jack the car up first, with Go-Jacks they have a built in jacking feature. as ian56 linked to.
