I expect your block-upon-block design is only fastened with wire nails which move as the dolly flexes - avoid any excessive stresses for your Giulia's and your own safety.

If the casters are held with 3' lag bolts, the chances of the wheels getting ripped off are slim. I am concerned that there isn't any cross bracing. If the dolly flexes, I would recommend some cross braces. Better to over-engineer than to get in trouble. It's looking good, Pat.
