Does anyone know roughly how heavy a MX5 shell with doors, bonnet and boot would weigh? Would it be moveable by hand with 5/6 people?

Easy!
I've shifted a few shells now. If it is literally a shell with just the panels on it (i.e. no interior or mechanicals) then 5 or 6 people can carry is easily. Four of us carried a shell (no doors or bootlid) without any hassle, so even with the doors on (bootlid & bonnet weigh next to nothing) then you won't have a problem.

I was hoping you would notice this thread Bruce  And thats the answer i was hoping for....just need to win the auction and then twist me dads arm into using his trailor again! |

Here is one of the shells we moved, there are 7 people in the video, but honestly, it could have been done with four or five.   ....and it definitely only took five of us to lift this onto the back of a flatbed truck (and we were pretty hammered, and tired...it was about 4am!):  Like I say, it's really not a problem, they don't weigh much when they are stripped.... |

It took 3 of us to load a Gen4 prelude into the back of a truck.
Front end first, pushed it in then lifted the back in.
Obviously with no engine in it!
