I purchased a shell from Craig quite awhile ago. I have had some serious issues that have prevented me from making a long distance road trip to get it. I was hoping someone here that is either close to Craig or is willing to make a run to Camp with a trailer and get the shell for me.

I am trying to reset my issues and get out to get it. Craig let me know today he needs the space freed up. I can supply gas money if someone wants to visit Camp and move the car east a couple hundred miles. If anyone can help I would need to schedule a time to come get it from you.

I would have it shipped but I think it would be cost prohibitive. Unless someone knows of a low cost shipper that would bring it out east.

The parts are going to save two other cars. Parts of the front clip are for Juergen's factory 6 and the rear clip is going to Canada to save Doug Brownridge's very badly rusted and damaged 914-4.

Sounds like this is taken care of but in case it isn't or someone else is in the same boat with shipping a shell that can't roll onto a car carrier I can offer some advice. We've developed a system to getting shells on car carrier's so you can have any shipper pick it up for normal rates. The cart we built is the width of the car carrier, built with 6 X 6's, and has no flat tires. We've shipped cars across the world using our carts, and given the plans to people we bought shells from and had the carts be successful. I'm attaching some pics of the carts in action, if anyone needs more detailed pics or plans let me know.

If you don't need to get the shell onto a car carrier your life is much simpler, I have carts for trailers too, much smaller and easier to make. Let me know what you need to do and I can get you the right info.
