Default Body Support Question???

I'm about done with the frame portion of this restoration and it's time to get started on the body. I'm looking to build a body support that I can roll around and move around under. Does anybody have any suggestions, plans, measurements, thoughts as to how to do this? What is best for this type of thing. Thanks in advance... I always get great advice from the members of the forum!!!

Jason

Jase,
You betcha. I removed the front clip on mine so I didn't assemble the front part of dolly. Just another method if you're doing the same thing. Without the front part of the dolly, I think I spent about 50 bucks and all materials came from Home Depot.
