fireman 10,861 Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Not sure if your going to "move it about" but mind the weight if you are going to move it about as looking at the woodwork your going to be loads heavier than what that chassis was meant to move about Wilf, i'm in the middle of a horsebox lorry conversion and although it's a lorry it's a 5 1/2 tonner so as such i've still got to be a tad careful with weight that i'm adding. Just thought i'd mention it and good luck with the build... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The only time that’s getting moved is to go on the back of a lorry if she ever sells it…..the lorry will back up to the concrete and it will move about 10m I know well that original chassis isn’t upto moving it about, it’s just camouflage really so that it’s not a “permanent structure” if any nosey Parker’s come calling. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
