I got asked to build a trial towing dolly, the plans had been bought of ebay and in all honesty after they ended up in the bin, so Wednesday teatime I started and Friday at 10.30pm it was done.
After taking it apart and de burring it, it was re assembled but not painted, fitted with R13C tyres, attached to the back of the van and I left home at 1am Saturday to pop to Dorset, got there around 7am after a couple of stops, got loaded and went home
Arrived home just after 5pm again after a couple of stops, the Strada pick up weighs 1600kgs and the dolly and the van brought it home without and problems.
I had a fleeting glance of stone henge, disappointed not to see any pagans running around, must be running out of virgins (only joking, I love all religions, don't think I've met any virgins)
All thats left is to strip and paint it and put a winch on it, this one could well end up on ebay but could well be a few more popping up. Always been a big fan of using trailers but definitely can see the benefit as regards to reducing towing weight and if it will bring 1600kgs back safely it cant be bad
