Rent one.

Re: 14 year old build

Maybe you can have the use of my A frame, you say the car is in Klipravier? this is near to where I live.
PS do you have a set of 15" Rostyles?

Re: 14 year old build

Young man do you know how high 1m from the ground aree spelling areeeeeee1972 wrote:very high meaning 1m from ground to tow hitch
I doubt it may be 500mm or so
Well sorry I could not help you today I was this morning at the national ac day in Pta and when you phoned me I was in Walkervill at the ABC charity day with the JHB bug club drinking cold ones and as said the trailer was ocupied
I have already made a plan with a friend of mines 15 window to get off the trailer to get Beetlefanatics cabrio to the upholsters and my Squareback to the panel beaters AAnd I am def not taking another car off the trailer and putting it up on stilts and have another spider walking around on my property
But when it is free you are more than welcome to borrow it The normal A frames that Mellow was talking about you could use them with 90% no problem clipping on the front H beam
Did you manage to get the bug home yet
