Title: I need some body's
Post by: Pookapotamus on March 15, 2010, 09:33:11 AM: I am scrapping the shell from my old xj this weekend and need a couple of strong backs to help lift it onto the flat deck trailer that i am borrowing from work so that i can haul it to calgary metal. it is completely gutted so its just the unibody and can be lifted by about 4 to six guys and we can always winch it onto the trailer as well, even though the trailer does not have a winch.

i plan to load it friday night around 6 oclock so that it is ready for the first thing in the morning.

any help would be muchly appriciated and there will be beers! ;)

thanks Dana

i guess i should put my address on eh? ::) 200 frobisher blvd S.E. google it!
