Default Somebody to transport a shell for me....

As above, only problem, its not a rolling shell, is there anyway around this?

The shell is in Birmingham area and I'm in Northampton, its just under 60miles, ofcourse I'm willing to pay what your after to do it.

Only concern of mine, if someone is willing to do it, how do you go about getting it off when it gets to me? as there is a forklift birmingham end, but it will be coming to my house, where I dont have a forklift Lol, so need some ideas guys!

Any help would be much much appreciated.

Thanks!

I was worried I was going to have this kind of problem!

Luckily, the person I'm buying the shell from is an absoloute legend and is going to get it rolling just while I transport it, then I'll get the suspension off and deliver it back to him. So I am really lucky.

I was worried I was going to have to find these frame things.

Thanks anyway though mate
