:lol: :lol: :lol: I was mate,it was Harry Hotters at 9am when I got there,we had to extend one Fork of matey's Fork Lift with a 4 meter Scaffold bar which I strapped to the fork,put a couple of straps at the front and back of the Car,then picked it up and he drove it in to my van with me keeping it straight until he got it in past the wheel arches,dropped it down and then he reversed back a tad,picked it back up and got it in a bit more, that was it strapped her down and off I went,unloading in Notts was not to bad as I rested the chassis on Blankets so we managed to slide the chassis to the back doors just enough so we could get the back wheels on,pinched some 4 meter Scaffold Boards from a nearby house (we did ask first).
I then got in and lifted the front end over the arches while my customer kept the back wheels on the boards,once that was done we chocked the back wheels and put on the front wheels and the rest as they say was "History".. :wink: :) :D :D

Ahh well belly....I don't know.............................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nah jokin....either a Hatcher or make my own similar to a Hatcher or alter my Bulkhead so it can slide back about 3 feet with a drop down bed on a hinge...although I will probably lose about 200mm of load length... :wink: :wink: up there for thinking...down there for dancing.... :wink: :lol: :lol:
