squonk 43,710 #5 Posted November 4, 2013 Red Green would have put bigger tires on it and driven it into the shop! Marlin Perkins would have been proud Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 9,984 #6 Posted November 4, 2013 A 'Tenner' ($16-ish) for that Fork Lift ! It had been sitting unused for years in the garage of my last workplace. Got it for less than scrap value when I retired. Came in handy when building the workshop, getting blocks, mortar and tiles up on the scaffolding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyovrcntry 115 #7 Posted November 11, 2013 When I first saw this I thought you were going to say you tried to enter the garage with it ,and tore it off on the header. I had a pick-up truck that I added a set of racks to.I pulled into the carwash that I had used for years..The door had 7 feet of clearance,but the racks were 7'2".It didn't tear them off,but it made the stake holes a little larger on my truck.

meadowfield 2,733 #9 Posted November 11, 2013 I really miss my 90 defender Landrover , wish i never sold it miss mine too... but the kids came along and no time for toys. Not until now - now the kids play on the horses too :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 9,984 #10 Posted November 11, 2013 Ever thought about welding it to the front of a wheelhorse Norm Yes! It would be possible, but not welded. Make up a frame to go underneath the horse with an extension out the rear for weight/weights. Fork assembly mounted on the front. No! Stop it! Stop it!
