I am considering driving down to B&B in Missouri in th fall to pick up my body. Anyone know of a reasonable place to rent an open trailer or have one that I could rent/borrow for a long weekend?

I'd sooner pour fiberglass dust down my pants than rely on Uhaul again.

But many times, its the only game in town.

Sometimes U-haul has a local cut rate, and they will not count Sun. Bring it back to the same shop on Mon. and pay for one day. Anything within 24hr drive is possible.
Just a thought.

You can use my trailer when you need it ,see about a set of front inner fenders/splash gaurds for my next roadster. I sold my FFR and will pick up an old LA exoctics this week. Rich

Rich,

Why did you get rid of the FFR? Is the LA complete or in pieces? At first I was confused by your remark about the fender liners until I put together the relation between LA Exotics and B&B. Have you talked to Bryan at all about the liners?

Thanks for the offer. When the time comes, maybe we can work something out. I am still trying to balance the have it delivered versus picking it up. Picking it up spells road trip and visit to the factory + some savings on the shipping charges. Having it delivered means I can use the vacation day for something else and can let someone else worry about the precious cargo. As I am looking at this, renting a trailor + gas + day off is more than having it delivered. But there is the experience.

I sold the FFR because the money was good and I realy enjoy the build, hope finish this next unit and get myself into a 289FIA. We could work some thing out,split gas and drive some steak and beer! Keep in touch. I owe some body for a shirt and dues I think. I'm good for it. Latter Rich

I still have your shirt!! I think we all owe dues still. BTW, the shirt has your FFR number on it if you remember correctly.

Rich,

Are you going to be at the show today? I have your shirt. Have you talked to B&B about your fender liners? I keep thinking about the 20+ hours driving, 10+ of them with my body on a trailer and am not sure if this is the route I want to go. Having it delivered in B&Bs enclosed trailer seems better every day, but I could probably buy something with the $400.00 that I would save. If I do decide to have it delivered, we could have them throw in whatever you need. I also have regular UPS comming from them, as I am buying parts as I need them, so if you need parts here and there, I could have them thrown in with mine to save shipping. Keep Finishline in mind for some of the parts though.
