 Transporting a 2cv body Hi All,
What sort of van has been used to transport a 2cv body (safely) with van doors shut.
VW T5???
Regards
Peter

Re: Transporting a 2cv body Thanks Guys,
My VW Transport's load bay is about 130mm too short.
But maybe I can leave the door's open a bit?

Re: Transporting a 2cv body You could load the body-shell with the front higher .
If you have some wood or anything else, you could make a sort of a bench in the front of the bay , so the front of the shell is higher and stabil .
It just could make the difference .

Re: Transporting a 2cv body @Geert,
Had similar idea, the "diagonal" line is longer.
With the shape of the front part of the body, I think its a case of seeing if its fits

Re: Transporting a 2cv body with the body upside down it's easier to tilt it.

Re: Transporting a 2cv body Wont fit a T4/5
Sprinter/Crafter and you're golden, you can drive a 2cv straight into one.

Re: Transporting a 2cv body And nope, for sure will not fit a VW Transporter. We tried. Right way up, on its side, upside down, with the B pillars closed up with a ratchet strap...
