After cleaning my chassis this afternoon I discovered a huge hole I my chassis bringing my impending chassis change forward. In anticipation of having to go and pick up a chassis down south somewhere, does anyone have a Trailor I could borrow in the near future that would be big enough to pick up a 90 chassis?

Hi

 Why go South, I bought one from Mathew Webster @ Tayside Land Rovers (01764 683535) the price was very competitive & he delivered it to me. Saved a lot of grief & the quality was first class. I am now awaiting delivery of one from him for my 110 project vehicle.
 PS I have no business connection with him.

Never heard of them before will try tomorrow. The places I have tried so far have been a good few hundred quid more than picking up from the manufacturer, so if I can borrow a Trailor I am still well up after diesel! I'm the impatient sort as well so delivery time will also come into it!

hes not too far from strathearn, i think he had some connection to them when it was crow,s   i have heard a few good things about him

Called Tayside today, if I'd managed to get him Friday it would have been a bargain, but he sold last one Friday for 1020 plus VAT, need to get one through Britpart now which puts price up somewhat. So cheapest option by a few hundred quid is going South.

Often worth getting the quality product, might make the job a little easier/straightforward.

Given the overall cost and general faff, its certainly worthwhile going for a maker with a good reputation and getting a galv one. No point in having another drama in 5 years time. 

It was Britpart as a supplier, not maker.

Gone for a Marsland one, need to sell my body now but going to collect certainly saves getting on for £200 even after fuel costs.

Never crossed my mind that Britpart would be making them,
just never knew where they would source them.

I was thinking cut out the middle man & deal straight with the manufacturer.
(not that, that always means a cheaper purchase price, with some stuff)
Have fun with it now that you are sorted.

What area are you in, for the loan of the trailer?

I got one from Rurai tonight so all sorted now, thanks.
