Default Need car trailering/moving in West Mids

Hi Folks

Does anyone have a trailer or flat bed that would be able to move my car for me to get the underside sand/media blasted.

Problem i have is the car is pretty much bare..



so cannot go on normal open centre trailers

I need to move the car from near M42 J10 to Marawise Treatments in Coventry (26mile journey)

Not sure if they can do the work while we wait or if it has to be collected another day, will find out specifics if someone is able to help.

Obviously willing to pay, let me know folks

Ta

Hence my problem, lol

Would assume a trailer that moves work machines like mini diggers etc would do it that are closed off in the middle not open like most car trailers.

Have been offered a trailer that will do it in Milton Keynes but i cannot tow a trailer on my licence and its abit too far to go when i only need to go to Coventry.

Other problem is it is going in to have the underside and engine bay blasted so would need to be stripped again before work could commence and is too much work.

its only a bare shell. 4 strong lads will be able to lift it on and off a normal trailor.
couple of bits of wood across the center,and it will tie down on the chassis rails.

Always good when others can help when the project comes to a stand still to get it moving again
