As title

I'm after half a dozen people to help me move the body tub of a TVR S onto a trailer. Tea/Coffee and bisuits available. Should not take longer the 30 mins (probably more like 10 to 15) to lift the shell off my patio and onto a trailer - it is to be rebuilt.

Time: Sunday 3rd March 2013

Location is Fairfield Close, Stockton TS197HH

Cheers in advance

Do yourself a favour, if you have'nt already done it, get a jack and some timber and with the car on its wheels.
Jack up the body, using the timber to spread the load on the fibreglass, away from the chassis.
Only half inch or so to break any seal from the body/ rubber/ chassis.
You will hear some awful creaking noises and you may have to get a driver in between some of the joints to break them, but it will save you time and sprained backs when you lift it off.
