Get some "dollies" made up
you can make 2 or 4 of these depending on your need:
2 parallel 4x2 (the tyre sits in betweens those so 6-8" apart is good
4x2 to brace those - you could use coach bolts to tie them together
h/d trolly wheels
from the top this will look like a rectangular perimeter made up of 4x2s
Jack the car up, drop the wheels into the "hole", then push the car around
to your heat's content!
