This is also posted in the S specific forum, when it should really have been placed here!

Help!!! I've started the S3 strip for the body off chassis overhaul and am looking for some dollies which I could borrow or rent to carry the body shell whilst off the car. The reason I want these is so I can move the shell in and out of the garage as necessary. I had intended to store it in the front garden but those b*****s of an insurance company say they can't insure the car when in two pieces as it's too much of a risk. What the **** said I surely the risk is driving the car on the road not it sitting in the front garden with no engine, gearbox, chassis and wheels!!!! All to no avail. Hence the call for help.

If anyone has any dollies or a trolley suitable for this purpose please let me know. I live in Plymouth but work in Portsmouth so can pick up any item at an arranged time on the route between the two (i.e. just off A303/A34/M3 or off the cost road (A38, M5, A30 A35, A31, M27). Also I am regularly in Bristol/Bath so could collect from that region too (anywhere off the A34/M4).

Cheers all hopefully it'll all be roadworthy again for the summer.
