I didn't see where else would be an appropriate place to ask this question, so just thought I would add it to this thread:

Any recommendations on couriers/freight companies/movers to get a TD42 Engine from Cape Town to Centurion?
Same for my Patrol (the entire car)?

What would you suggest for the car, road or rail freight?

Thanks

Evening,

So,
Unfortunately the TD42 I was looking at isn't going to work out for me. Long story...

With that being said, any leads on good, healthy TD42 engines for sale, please let me know!

Thanks

That is sad. Probably not enough demand.

After some lengthy conversations and calculations on the TD42 conversion, I have decided to put it on ice for now. :salute:
