Hi Volks

A mate of mine is really supportive of his sons go karting career and transports him to all the regional national races in SA, where ever they may be.

He uses one of his 10 ton trucks, and also transports some of the WP karting fraternity's karts to all the races. He regularly has space in his truck, and as you know, and empty truck is not a productive one.

So he is always looking for any side loads between Gauteng and Cape Town or vice versa. His trucks are normally later model Mercedes Benz trucks, and most of the have lifts fitted for easy loading. So anything can be transported really, space dependent.

If anyone wants anything transported from PTA or JHB to CT this week, please give him a shout. They are currently at Swartkops Race track this week, and will be leaving for CT after the race meet ends on Saturday 20 August 2016. I will update here when they travel to different parts of SA for race meets.

Contact him for a chat/quote on the below:

Transporting '71 kombi from Durban to Cape Town - I have just bought a '71 Lowlight and need to get it from Durban to CT. It is a runner. Peter Benn can only do it on 10 October (cost R 4 500), so if anyone knows of another option before then please let me know. Thanks.

Sean and myself are looking to exchange bus benches. Is there anyone here that may be able to assist, please?

Cape Town < > KZN (Pietermaritzburg/Midlands area, although we can move them around Natal to some extent).

There's no rush.

Thank you.

You can always drive my bus down to Cape Town and bring the seat with you. I'll pay for fuel and buy you a plane ticket back to Dbn :wink:
You can never have enough Garages :-(

Other way around... I'm in Cape Town, but my benches are in KZN. ;)

That said, that's not an entirely mad plan... :lol: Do tell...

I have a bus in Pmb that needs to be collected and more than willing to buy ticket one way and fuel the other. PM me your contact number then we can talk.
