Come across a 1973 850 on a L reg, 1 owner from new, for a full restoration project that i can buy.

Need to drag it out the garage where it currently lives, onto a trailer and a 5 mile journey home.

Its on its wheels but everything is seized up so MIGHT need a winch type system as well...

Anyone help me out? Need to get it on my drive for as cheap as possible!

what city/town? as theres a bloke i use in birmingham.....he takes my mini the garge for £20, its 3 or 4 miles away.

and you can hire a trailer to put a mini on for about £60 for a day....providing you have a car or van with tow bar.

Stourbridge/Lye/Quarry Bank kind of area.

Non of the three family cars have tow bars, and no one we know has either. Bit of a pain

Could ask at chapelhouse motors in cradley heath, the lad works there and they have a transporter and would probably do you a good price. Its right opposite the train station. Ask for Rowan and say neil danks said you would probably do it, no harm asking.

Just spoken to rowan and he said he should be able to sort something.
If anyone needs any repairs in the cradley area contact chapelhouse they will try to sort you out
