Barry Cade Posted May 2, 2017 Author Share Posted May 2, 2017 Progress may be a little sedate as I still only have 1 working hand, and Tuesday is my day off! Will ask pricing etc tomorrow- a lot of the stuff in there is brand new, so I'm thinking some sort of caravajumble day/open day. The rear panels are warranty replacements- they are done here if needed, young lad is a whizz with that sort of stuff. Bought this rack for the camper new off Ebay, not a named one but its very sturdy- think it was £80 ish.

oldcars Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 That's a decent looking rack. I am wanting one that attaches to the A frame of the caravan, Fiamma make one but i cannot find out how long the a frame needs to be to fit it. Need to look into it more.

wuvvum Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 If you find a towbar for a Rover R3 I'd be interested - with the impending fleet reduction the Rover of Doom might have to start doing tow car duties. Barry Cade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bangerfan101 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I've got one off a fiesta going begging. It's a sturdy looking lump of iron. Will probably fit other cars with some bodgery as it's just a straight bar. I'm in Wakefield wf3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Cade Posted May 2, 2017 Author Share Posted May 2, 2017 Would £60 quid delivered for the towbars put you guys off? Obviously I need to go in with some sort of figure- how do you price this stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyramrod Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 It wouldn't put me off, certainly; just the apparent failure to exist is what's doing that! Please, please, find one that fits ONE of my fleet, any one, I don't care which! Barry Cade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Fiats Sake Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Price seems fair enough to me too. That place sounds like it's gold/shite plated all the way! Barry Cade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinmasters Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I looked at the TR7 pictures and thought 'there's not much left of that TR7 door on top of that pile of scrap'. Took a few minutes to realise what the pile of scrap was. Tickman, Uncle Jimmy and Barry Cade 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PiperCub Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Long shot this but is the 205 one the detachable variety? (As opposed to the flanged type). I'd be interested if it's the former. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Thank you!It's supposedly half-price, which is encouraging, but with single electrics and a bumper guard it's up the wrong side of £100, and I've still got to get it fitted. So perhaps not. I'd much rather buy from your stock! Barry Cade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 All the batteries got cashed in, along with the scrap. All the useable caravan stuff got filed away ,probably for another 30 years. What do you need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
