Transportation Ideas for vintage cars
#7
Will, I think your type 23 must be at least 11 feet long unless it is severely modified. Also the track is about 4 feet, I think. It would be too long for a MWB Sprinter. It would be easier if it fitted between the wheel arches if you were to use a LWB version although there are solutions to that problem.

Charles' observations are spot on. For the last few years I have used a MWB high roof sprinter to transport my Ulster and it also fits two out of three of my specials and my 1933 A7 Tourer. I could be tempted by a LWB version.
I have room to park the Sprinter without inconvenience. Rather like sharks, they are designed to keep moving. In practice that means driving it a least once a fortnight.
If you keep it taxed and insured it may well cost you £600pa+
I consider it preferable to a trailer for my circumstances.

Lock down aside, I found that I used it frequently for purposes other than car transport, often for the benefit of others!
Happy to discuss by phone if you wish - send me a pm if you want to get in touch.

Regards,

Stuart
