Is there anyone in Horsham who could pick up a c15 bulkhead for me if I win it on eBay? Need to get it closer to Coventry then somehow

Yep, whereabouts is it advertised? I might even know them.

[dean36014]

It's on ebay.

I should be driving past it Saturday teatime before heading home up the M40.

 

Sorry, bit of a change of plan.

Thanks Rich, unfortunately the auction doesn't finish until Sunday...

I was going to struggle to collect them this week so there is a bit of a sigh of relief there,  I should have more time to collect it later but no idea how to get it nearer.

[egg]

Cool. Are you going to FOTU? I am...

If I win this Villiers engine, would anyone be able to collect on my behalf please? It is in Wombourne a village South West of Wolverhampton (West of Dudley)

Thanks.

I'm in Dumpley (Dudley) and could collect and hold till it can be moved on.

[catsinthewelder]

Wombourne is nearer than Dudley but if the seller is only available for 5 mins every second Tuesday its helpful to know there is someone nearer.

edit

and I'm 99% sure I'll be at FotU

[egg]

thanks chaps, I'll have a crack on it, already had 1 bid, no idea what's it's worth, but I will let you know if I win.

[dean36014]

Ok is anyone passing Horsham who could bring a panel up closer to the Midlands or even the field of dreams? Many thanks.

[Rovorsche]

Norwich to Oxford for a set of four Alloy wheels ?

Happy to meet at Swindon/Newbury if your journey takes you that way, I have a variable work plan from a selection of offices.

If the Sigma gets through the mot I might be up for the field of Dreams  but if anyone is passing close to Horsham in the meanwhile....

I work in Norwich and will be heading to the Festival of the Unexceptional in Bucks in a few weeks' time - don't know if that's any help.  Could possibly pass them on to someone from out west for onward conveyance.

That might work if I can sneak out for an hour or so, its a busy day with family events.

FOTU looks like a cool thing, waiting on a reply from the seller regarding the urgency for collection.

[egg]

@puddlethumper and @catsinthewelder I won that engine for £81.50. Would either of you chaps be free to pick it up please this week?

£60 was my limit. Good old Sunday night ebay frenzy ?

[catsinthewelder]

I've currently got no idea what I'm up to this week but should be able to swing by at some point.  Drop me a pm with the sellers details and I'll start organising something.

[egg]

Cheers Rich - I've messaged him to ask when he is free etc, so will let you know. Thank you.

Here's a story - just spoken to the villiers engine seller - who bumped into @dollywobbler in TWC near DW's house (the seller has a caravan nearby) - and offered to sell him this engine a while back!

@LightBulbFun he bought this engine a year ago - so sorry chap, the rest of the car, as normal, is no-where to be seen, the current engine owner is a motorbike guy...

funny how it comes almost full circle like that! I assumed you told him that you know DW/TWC well and that you own an Invacar Mk12c?

I figured such sadly in regards to where the rest of the car was at

do you have any sort of plan of action with this engine is it a backup engine incase you cant get the one original to your Mk12 going, or do you plan to just drop it straight in? (It would be cool to see if the original engine does run )

here's another bit of villers engine, don't know if you need it at all or not, but worth linking I think?

[egg]

Thanks, I've watched that. 

Plan seems to be to keep accumulating bits, beyond that - not sure!

[DoctorRetro]

Can anyone pick up some wheel trims from Hastings and arrange postage please? It's an ebay collection only item. 

No worries if not, I don't actually need them. 

[loserone]

Anyone able to pick up a kids bike from Wakefield and shuffle it North a bit, ideally to the Toft Hill meet at the end of the month?

Oh bugger, I've only just seen this, I had forgotten that I have a bulkhead for your C15 which came with the van when I bought it off Chadders, I didn't remember about it when Lankytim had the van from me. If you haven't already got one it's here.

Definitely need this now, Mrs L1 won it.  Postage or shuffling further north, either would be a big help.  Costs and beer covered obviously.

[busmansholiday]

There's a few shiters in that area who could possibly collect it (me if the English Channel wasn't currently in view).

No longer required, for some reason I'm going down south on Saturday 

[Flat4]

Anyone live around Chorley who is either heading to Scotland at some point or coming to the A68 meet at the end of the month? Seen a spare set of alloys for the Granvia which may be too good a deal to pass up, IF I can get them home at reasonable cost.

[worldofceri]

Looks like I will have an empty car trailer heading from the midlands all the way to Penzance next week (probably Tuesday).

PM if any use to anyone!  PFA.

Anyone local to Bicester? If I win this https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F283592109179

Volvo 940 load cover if someone is able to collect and bring to the field of dreams on an open day or some other shiteley arrangement that would be awesome
