Hi mate, just got to work and thought it'd be an idea to make sure it would fit in the van. Can you let me know the dimensions of the chassis please mate, or anyone else out there know?
I got your pm too, I'll give you a shout when I know it'll fit and that the van can get there. If you're happy to go to mk, that would make things easier for me to organise with the driver, but if not, there's no trouble in him coming to you.


Cheers Ash

Captaincrash, unfortunately I have bad news. It has become apparent that the van is no longer headed up to Milton Keynes on Friday due to some problems with the bits that were going to be delivered. I'm going to have to let this one slip by I'm afraid. Im genuinely sorry to have got your hopes up, but thank you for allowing me to have the time to check.
I really hope you are able to sell the chassis,

Best regards

Ashley

No problem. Anyone else for a genuine bargain? Quick, to save me grief of ebay selling.

Hello Captain....and everyone else, this is a bit scary...1st post `n all that. Meant to do the intro thing but in at the deep end is the best way sometimes!

I would be interested in your chassis. Had a look at your blog thing and you mentioned Handyandy had looked over it. What did he find, is there a lot to do? would it be within the scope of a welding muppet such as myself?

Could poss meet you on your travels on friday

Best regards

Andy...yep `nuvver `un

Hi Andy, welcome to the forum. Handy mentioned one of the front wishbone mounts was askew, and a couple of the welds at the back end needed tidying up. Make me an offer, need the space and its far too good to chop up.

Hi, sorry for the delay,

Captain - which way are you heading south on Friday, are you coming down the A1 ? Would you be able to drop the chassis off on your way? I could meet you at Goole which is along the M62 a bit ....or is that too far off your chosen path?

Also just read your previous post regarding bits for sale. Did you have anything else of interest left in your garage ?

Jaykay - not in Hull, although go there a bit with work. I think there were a few East Yorks Roadster builds at one time - Neil P has finished his and a couple of people out near beverley were starting. There was also a bloke finished a white roadster at your side of the Humber near scunny. Be interested to hear from anyone in the area.
