    Warning: OT.
    If you have opened a Hemmings or Speedway catalog looking for wheel dolly's for your cars, then you probably saw Gojaks listed. I installed two Accurpress CNC Press Brakes this week at Zendex, who makes Gojaks. It was interesting to see these up close and personal. Hell, I even made a few dozen foot pedals myself while tuning the machine.
    Since there are already a couple of threads on wheel dolly's, I just wanted to make a third one. Also these Gojaks are built heavy as heck.

    Now they are recognizable.

    I guess one of the fringe benefits of helping a guy out with his press brakes is to receive in the mail, a whole set of Gojaks and storage rack. Normally I wouldn't even consider owning something so fancy but now that I have them, holy shit!:eek:

    If you don't want them, I'll happily dispose of them for you. Very nice.

    Its wild aint it? He also sent me a "Goodie" box with a spot blaster, vacuum, replacement parts, and more. I feel like I won the lottery.

  5. Cool. Congrats on the Gojaks! I love mine (only wish I had got a deal like you did). Great for moving cars around in the garage. Will probably use them during "move-in" at the upcoming Huntington, WV World of Wheels car show.

    Had to go back to Zendex to install a CNC retrofit to another press brake. So I took along a drawing for a Hot Rodders Gojak.
    Uses a butchered Ford Wishbone, Miniature Dropped Axle, Ripple Tubing, Finned Aluminum Guts cover, Full Fendered w/ Skirts Casters, and Hurst Style Shifter. Thought I'd share, couldnt wait for Friday Art Show. :)
