ROAD TRIP!

It looks like I will be headed up to Drew's place Sunday Morning to drop off a trailer-load of garage space where the '74 tub is now.
/bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/driving.gif /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cheers.gif

If I recall, there isn't much non-bodywork stuff left on the tub, so the only additional weight would be the rear springs and axle housing.

Any suggestions on how to unload the garage-space from the trailer?

Woohoo, road trip! Should be an interesting logistical experiment to get it all loaded on, but I've got a 2 ton engine hoist, and lots of dollies. Should be able to make something work with all that.

On your end, you may have to invite some strong neighbors to help. Tub really isn't that heavy, but certainly not a one-man job.

See you on Sunday!

One man on each corner should man-handle a tub around easily enough guys!!
