I need to get one of Zoo's rear beams over to Germany and as I am taking the family, there is certainly no room for such a thing in the Escort (not with push chair, cot etc).

The recipient of the beam has said that he will reward the person with a 3-lap pass for anyone that will do it (worth 45 Euros).

Can anyone help?

will it fit in the boot of a saff Mike?

Paul,
The beam part is 4˝ feet wide, so should do even if it requires the seats folding down . It will be all newly powder coated, so will be mint and won't get the car dirty .

Can you not have a go at sleeping in a bed for one weekend Mike? Would save you taking the cot

Graceland

will it go in if i fold the seat down behind the driver?

and how much does it weigh?

Graceland

also, is it just the beam, or the trailing arms also?

Paul,
The trailing arms also, but they're only 2' square, so should easily fit in the boot. I have no idea - hopefull Brom will see this and reply... .

Cola,
Treated with the contempt you deserve .

Graceland

if the arms are seperate from the beam, then i'll stick it in mine - providing it can be gotten here first - will go measure my boot now and then will give a definate answer

Yes, will be three seperate parts . And no problem getting it to you .

Graceland

Mike - deliver it to mine and it will go in the taxi

Graceland

altho, if it takes aslong as the brakes to arrive, we'll be at the ring already


only joking


you need my address again or you still have it in the little black love book?

Linsay

I'll be travelling light, if there's any probs and if it'll fit in an erst, with seats down i'm willing to be of assistance

Graceland

If it is the same as a 3 door grp A rear beam, it fits nicely behind the front seats in the rear foot wells as the arch in the middle sits over the transmission tunnel. The trailing arms, if they are the triangle shaped bits, fitted in the front footwell.

Why over load your car when you already have 3 people in it plus baggage etc.

Why not let JC take it, like he said he's taking his van.

Lee if you get stuck jump in with us mate.

Graceland

JC can take it then - no hassle

car won't be overloaded as now only got one passanger, and if the other one drops out, then i aint going - simple as

Brom,
Afraid not, getting up at stupid o'clock on Sunday morning. Could you not give it to JC then, might be the best option if Paul's passenger pulls out at last minute?
Cheers

Graceland

Mike - theres no fear of my last remaining passanger pulling out - he's bought everything so far he needs and even got a wad of euro's too
