bringing my baby home


I've finished building my storage cupboards and workbench. Stoked with the bench, though its too sexy to work on, dont want to get it scratched. It worked brilliantly today as a BBQ table though.

Anyhoo, now that its finished and I have room to put the crap that has been on the garage floor, its time to bring my baby home. Its been living at a friends place for 2 years, functioning as a toddlers playground, suffering in embarrassment with #53 blu-tac-ed to the sides of it.

Its going to be a pretty tough job getting it out as its at the bottom of a steep and narrow drive, cant get a trailer down there. To get it there i bodged up front end and gearbox, tied a rope to it and let it down easy tied to the front of my ford. Because of the front and rear ends being partially complete, I cant just pull it out. No castor - wheels go everywhere.

Does anyone have a complete king pin front end lying around that I could borrow? (southern sydney, wollongong, shoalhaven?

And then I'll just have to figure out a way to get it up my driveway that is also too steep for a car trailer.
