These look like the good ones.
My buddy has two, swears by them. 

Don't waste your money on cheap sets, like (four for $100 or whatever) at
Harbor Freight.

They are not worth it (IMHO); I've found them very difficult to move cars,
even as light as ours. Course by some standards I'm not a big person (5'6",
170lbs), yet it's everything I can to use them by myself. In fact they are
so difficult I am considering throwing them away. I have two brothers with
the same kind (cheap) and they do are not satisfied with them either.

Subject: [Healeys] recent experience with dollies

I'm thinking of getting a set of dollies to push my Healey around in
the garage.  The archives have a couple of threads on the topic, but
the threads are getting old and some of the recommendations from Moss
aren't available anymore.  I'm interested in a dolly that I can slide
under the wheel, and it can lift the wheel itself.  Something like
this:  http://www.mossmotors.com/Shop/ViewProducts.aspx?PlateIndexID=31213
.

 Anybody have any recommendations?

thanks,

Tom
