Well there seems to be a couple of you interested in it. From my point of view the first person to come up with a deposit on the trailer and then collect in a reasonable amount of time gets it.
It does have a jockey wheel yes, I need to fit it (literally just needs sliding in the hole) so that should be in when you collect it anyway. However it is well weighted anyway and doesn't suffer from the usual massive nose weight so it will actually push around without the jockey wheel. But I'll try to get it in anyway.
As to what a reasonable amount of time is, well I'm fairly flexible, it doesn't need to be gone by tomorrow (infact I actually need to use it on Thurs) but I'd like it gone inside a fortnight really, the sooner the better. But I am flexible.

I don't actually know, usually these sorts of things are old caravans converted, but it's twin axle, so it may well be purpose made I don't know, but it's that kind of quality.
Ramp wise it has 2 short ramps with it which are currently free from the bed but can be hinged on the bed. As the trailer is very low it isn't hard to load at all even with the short ramps (I call them short but they are still 4+ft long).
Winch wise it's a sturdy winch with wire cable and hook on the end, fixed handle so it won't fall off (as once happened on an expensive Brian James I had).
Really the only issues that I'd address are a rewire of the trailer board with some nice new wire (board, lights and plug are in good nick) the trailer also has side marker lamps so if cleaned up painted and all the lights working it would look quite nice!
And to complete the nice look a new pair of mudguards, last time I priced them up they were about £12 each, just been on ebay expecting them to have shot up in price but they are about the same price! Slap some paint on it and you'd have a nice towing tidy trailer.
I've got a spare wheel for it too. If you want I can lay my hands on about 4 more spares (rough).

Not the foggiest mate, towed an MGB without even feeling it.
Like I say it's not a shiny ifor williams, but it's a functional useable trailer.

First off I have a large car trailer (it is big too, fitted an opel monza on without major difficulty) twin axle, rough as a bears but tows well, perfectly functional even has a winch, but it's home made, rusty and ugly, has mudgaurds but one (both really) need work or replacing, has lights which currently don't work (should work by the weekend as I need to use it) so bring a trailer board. What can I say, it's a trailer that would take most cars, tows like a dream, looks like hell. £250 Engine stand, industrial clarke one, from memory around £100 new, £45 takes it. Only selling as the only engines I need to work on are a bit heavy for any stand! Collection only unless you can come up with a way to fold a trailer up and pop it in a jiffy bag!

HS2 probably off an early mini, look to be a pair of singles not a pair to go together (eg cooper).

Hi guys just bought an MGC with a mint steel bonnet fitted, it should have an alloy bonnet however.
Does anyone know of a decent used alloy C bonnet for sale, if you have one and want a steel one in exchange (plus some cash your way) because maybe you want to modify the bonnet, or if you have one to sell outright please PM me.

Can a mod contact me please? No parcel as yet (was allegedly sent a while ago) and no log in from the RR member, sure it's something totally innocent but if a mod has a contact number or email address that would be helpful!

Got a nice solid MGBGT 1979 for sale.
Circa £1700 in East Yorks. Maybe a bit expensive for a resto project but a nice solid car for a change.

All parts for bolt on wheels (4x114.3).
Rear axle, from memory these are 3.9 ratio, good axle no noise, comes with brakes etc. Can probably throw a prop in too. £50
Front suspension and rack, only thing not included are shocks (as these are nearly new) includes brakes, anti roll bar, springs, etc. etc. £50
Rear springs, mounts etc. £20
Set of 4 lever arm dampers, nearly new, all damp well with no leaks, last set sold for a mad £88, I'm happy with £50 for these.
I'll do a deal for the lot, or do a straight swap for the panels I'm after in the wanted section.

Outer sections of inner rear wings (they come in 2 halves) of course I wouldn't turn down the complete lot. Both sides.
Outer sills. Both sides.
If the price is right a pair of good condition early wide gap GT front wings.

Springs went in the bin ages ago due to lack of interest.
Kids? I hope you don't know something I don't!!!

If its that sort of era stuff it won't be of huge use to me, it's the old stuff I'm interested in, 60's era, so flicky toggle switches and metal backed lights etc.
