Would anyone likes to make me a sensible offer for this poor neglected carriage  circa 1800. I found it abandoned in the back of my barn and don't have the time or patience to restore it myself. I think all the metalwork is still there but the woodworm will need a lot of attention. I have also advertised it on  eBay.
Pm for any questions you have.

THIS IS NOW SOLD

Do you reckon it would fit in the back of a LWB high-top Transit van?

Looks great...unfortunetly my life is littered with to many unfinished projects..
good luck with your sale.

Hi Polish Darrow , ( could start a new trend here ) High top long base trani ? give me the internal dimensions and I'll have a bit of a measure for you, I don't know if the shafts undo yet as I haven't cleared all the junk away from it yet. So get yer stick of inches out and tell me what it says.

Just had a measure : overall length 11' 6"   width 6'  hight 4'6"

Polished Arrow , have PM'd you.

Hi there, Tizzy (zee what I did there?!) 

I will measure the van tomorrow and see if it will fit, first.  I have NO idea what something like this would be worth, but will have a serious think about it if it will fit, and will come back to you.  Tomorrow is a very busy day (final-proofing daughter's engineering dissertation, collecting a hen coop from north of Birmingham and out to do a small holding visit as well as normal farm life) so it may be Thursday before I come back to you.

I know that at the very least the doors could be left open (wheels wedged in a stop position before driving off!) and the height would fit, so it is just a matter of width.

I have no use for it at the moment though have thoughts of selling one of my motorbikes and buying a horse to work the farm alongside us.

I have two, and have to decide which I could most live without.  Probably the Italian - Aprilia Falco - a whizzy, whizzy bike that make you go 'Whoop!' when you ride her

Where could you find a girl like that ?
