    If anyone have a low loader going down then I'd be very interested in chipping in for an empty back load after drop off. Need to move a truck from Eastbourne to Lincoln. Thanks.

    Hi John, I've got a Matador to move from Eastbourne up to Lincoln so would be very interested in sharing costs if you have a plan? I'm flexible on dates. Let me know if it's of any interest. Thanks Tim

    Hi Gents, I need to move a truck from Eastbourne to Lincoln and was wondering if anyone had any empty beaver tails returning from the war and peace show that might be able to assist please or know of any firms that do that route? A 26T beavertail or low loader would do the trick. Thanks Tim

    Hi Jordan, This question has been asked a few times recently and I've been in touch with 3 other Matador owners that need new cabs. I think it may be time to carry out a bulk build if your interested? I've sourced some seasoned ash and have a Chippy that can do the work. If your interested PM me.

    I'm just restoring one of these trailers at the moment but the tyres are perished. Could anyone kindly help locate some 1050/13 tyres that would be suitable please?

    Hi, It seems as if there are quite a few of us carrying out Matador restorations. I'm about to start work on my rotten cab too so was just wondering if anyone in the same position would be keen to combine our individual efforts to hopefully reduce costs and make the projects easier by looking towards forming a collective order of new timber cab frames and laser cut panels? If anyone is interested then please PM me and we can take it from there.

    Pm sent Phil, I might be able to offer it a home locally where it would be safe and appreciated.

    Thanks for all your help, it has been very useful and means that vehicles abroad are not really out of our reach with a bit of homework. Cheers, Tim.

    Hi, Has anyone had any dealings with importing vehicles from America/ Canada???? I've seen some very nice vehicles for sale from overseas and am wondering if anyone has actually brought one??? Is importing cheaper than most people think or is it a non starter??? Cheers, Tim.
