0R10N Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Wanting to borrow: suitable tow vehicle (and driver if he/she can be successfully convinced to partake) and appropriate car trailer for the transportation of 1 x BFMR Familia from a garage on the Shore to another garage south of the bridge. Ideally would like to do this sometime between 21st - 31st Jan. Name your poison as payment. chur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanfels Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I can tow it for you, I just have no trailer. Can you borrow Chris's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 Sounds chur Ryan. I'll hit Chris up when I next see him, otherwise I might be able to borrow Cam's trailer, which is probably a better fit for a Familia. Anyone know when he's back in towne? (It's also winched I believe) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LingLing Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Got that shit bimmer has a tow bar, but I need to tlc for the engine etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickity Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I too have a vehicle that isn't actually any good for towing even though it has a hitch. Just thought I'd let you know.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EURON8 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I have a tow vehicle and trailer which you can't borrow. Just thought if say so you would realize how pointless this is. Slash Ed we will sort the whole deal next week. Consider this problem thread solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 Mintsauce. Erry other time I've asked, it's been in use you see. One slight problem may be the driveway at the place on the shore... bricks will probably be shat upon viewing of the downhill slope and pathing angle. I'll pack a tow rope.

EURON8 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Rope tow/roll/push the bitch out then drag onto trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 Yo Chris, availability of trailer Sat night for Nostalgic Hero meet? Need to trailer a certain car due to it not having any WOF. Don't want people getting antsy about legality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 The only people that will be antsy is the police, which is why broadcasting it on a publicly viewable forum is a not the smartest idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickity Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Trailer is a no-go for Saturday night. It's at dairy flat and driving all the way out there from greenlane via forest hill to collect the tow vehicle and then back to st johns is just a bit far/expensive sorry.

0R10N Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Was being slightly facetious anyway. Will just stay home and curl up in the corner muttering darkly. The BFMR tow mission looks like it won't be going ahead until after Nats (I was hoping for Thursday evening), but will keep you/Chris informed so there's ample time to retrieve the trailer.

Chickity Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Bring one of many other vehicles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 I wanted to bring a few of them. But it probably won't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickity Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 How many are in the show? If only one why not bring another on Sat, park with plebs and then deploy an additional driver to bring that to Hero while you bring the other. I'm sure Chris will be more than happy to pilot.

0R10N Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 plan was to bring coupe, squid, the RX-7 and the TX3, but can't get peeps to commit to driving one way or the other. the more I think about it the more I want to forget the idea, on account of looking too tryhard/showoff. Only the coupe ended up being in the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickity Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 So why not bring the squid/tx3 on sat morning and let Chris (if you're brave enough) drive one from the show to the meet. If the car/s you're bringing live elsewhere I can ferry you home from wherever they live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Assume we are going to the meet, I can drive anything you want legal or not, legalness has never worried me in the past.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 ok here's how the puzzle plays out in my mind: currently daily driving the TX3. So on Friday I drive it to where the coupe is being stored, and pick that up to drive to the show, leaving the TX3 behind. Somehow get a lift home Friday nite after show setup. (I haven't sussed this part out yet) Next morning catch a ride in truckity to show proper. After show finishes, drive coupe to where TX3 is, and that's also where squid happens to be. Get two people to drive coupe/TX3, would prefer to drive squid myself as it's still being a huge misfirey bitch. Arrive at nostalgic meet, leave cars there, I'll sort out getting the banana as I don't really want people knowing its location. Still worried it'd be a bit tryhard though.

EURON8 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 That's all good. We'll drive u to squid and I'll drive the tx3 and Tara can drive the coupe. Truckity can stay at the lock up while we go play Japanese cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
