Transport help needed near Glossop for part built kit
DanG - 12/3/12 at 09:28 PM

Hi

I am hoping someone can offer advice/help.

I need to transport a part built MNR kit 15 miles to my home in Glossop.

Can anyone recommend anyone who can help?

It is a rolling chassis and all parts.

I am more than willing to pay fuel, etc.

I just need the kit moving fairly quickly.

Thanks

PS. Have you sold your MNR? My kit is the part built MNR from Ady.W

i have a trailer that you could have borrowed but im just north of lancaster?

Might take you up on the offer of the trailer.

Will let you know.

Need to get the kit back home and then arranging with Chris @ MNR to finish the build.

I planned on working alongside a kit car chap near me to complete the build. This way my car got finished but at the same time I got the chance to help and learn along the way.

Unfortunately it has not worked out like that and I know have personal reasons for wanting the car complete as quickly as possible.

When? My trailer's not doing anything but taking up yard space.

i would seriously consider you doing as much work as you possibly can yourself. if you have to pay labour costs as well as parts it will cost an absolute fortune.and youll never get your money back,or even close to it. youd be almost better to sell it now as it is,as it would be a great project for someonme and buy a fully built one. thats the only way you will get close to breaking even. it will easily sell in the state its in now

Cheers adi.

I was going to give you a bell tomorrow anyway to book in the Scooby for the window fix.

I would be looking at maybe one evening this week or possibly Sunday.

Selling is not an option. The kit is exactly the one I want. Just want it built now.
