here my oxford rt180. picked up today

[JayRS4]

Engine crane

Failing that, we`ll let the air out of the tires, suspension will already be bottomed out, should just roll off the back at that point.

 

[madkayaker]

[simon718]

[madkayaker]

I feel a "monty python moment" happening

 

[madkayaker]

just ask him how much for the van as well then for the mobile hobby saves unloading

Hmmmm, but powering that beast off a 12v alternator isn't going to get me anywhere other than luke warm

 

[JayRS4]

MK, you don`t have to talk about me in the third person, i`m only here.

At the moment, it`s looking like an ageing escort, a berlingo (god help us all, 1.4 diesel and no turbo) or a vw caddy

That said, i might take the one in my avatar for the trip yet

 

[madkayaker]

sorry Jay I had an escort and had very little trouble with it. Good point OM 12V probably isn't going to get very far

Will it fit with the crane

Dad's just had a bit of a grumble at how big it was but it's my house and my garage

 

[JayRS4]

No worries MK, there`s not much wrong with this escort either, back doors could do with patching up and it`s a bit rattly, thats about it.

Om, it`ll fit just fine, i can get the mig, toolbox, bandsaw, plasma and compressor in the back without folding the seats, it`ll even take an 8x4 with the tail closed if your a bit crafty (and don`t have a spine)

Longest i`ve had was 3.2 metres inside,most weight was half a pallet of bricks, should cope just fine

 

[Omniata]

I don't want any accidents, remember 166kgs on wheels has a lot of momentum and doesn't like stopping in a hurry

Don't want to find you outside my house "dimensionally deformed"

 

[JayRS4]

It`ll be tied down, don`t you worry, the japs think of everything, for an estate it`s even got tiedowns like in the back of a Transit (and a damn site quicker too)

I think we can consider this thread well and truely hi-jacked

 

[madkayaker]

that happens when OM and i get chattering. Normal i get scooped up and dumped in Sparkeys thread

 

[Omniata]

Hi-jacked,......... again

 

[madkayaker]

shep will be along in the morning to tidy up

 

[JayRS4]

Well there`s a section in the brew room for one lot, maybe we should request one too

 

[madkayaker]

we are normally in the any more girls thread

 

[Omniata]

I've gotta go, work early in the morning and busy Friday, again

Cheers!!! Learning everyday

Night guys, and gals

 

[JayRS4]

Hmm, something i should know, a weekend hobby is it
