As title says, need a shell moving about half a mile, seems petty but laws are laws and I don't have a trailer or licence to hire one :/

So I'll need it probably on a flatbed to the blasters and then back again when it's done.

Cheers

Blasters, in Wigan ? , i'm in Bolton and don't know about any blasters, any contact details or price on blasting Craig ?

 

Afraid my old man has the land rover but no trailer big enough, i'l still ask him tonight though.

 

Cheers,Cliff

Yeah, he picked the car up for us but it's no wheels now and I'm pretty sure he's ain't a flatbed type

And quoted me 336 for estate shell and 180 for zinc coating, obviously I can't comment on there work I just thought I'd be cheeky n ask em as they do wheel etc :)

And if your old an can do it you'll be able to see their work for future ref :)

Chhers Craig, I'l wait till i get back home as i'm at college at the mo before i write down those details.

 

He works for a Recovery company and knows the boss quite well so might be able to get something big enough ;) .

Brilliant, fingers crossed, I guess a flatbed recovery truck will do trick? Tried down etc?

Just let us know anyhow

Cheers :D

Hi Craig, he says that he doesn't have anything big enough :/ , although shouldn't be too much for a local delivery guy around your area ?, stop one on the street! :lol: .

 

Only other thing i can suggest is getting the subbys built up and tow it down ?

I thought about that but the rear mounts into too great, if no one here can help Ill find someone local, thought I'd ask the mini community first :D

Hi, when I bought a mini off someone in Golbourne his mate, a licenced waste carrier/scrap merchant moved it for me from Golbourne to Blackrod on the back of his tranny van flat bed. Might be worth giving a ring? 07973 791351.
