Anyone think of any ways to transport a rolling shell from Girvan (Ayr) to Airdrie (East of Glasgow)?

Got adverts up on Shiply and UShip, the shell's sat on an A-frame at the minute but struggling to find someone who can tow it.

Ideas?

You actually selling it as a shell or scrap? If scrap, cut it up and throw it in a van. If shell, get another car and put it on the roof rack.

The sundance will probably meet its maker at the spinny hands of a stihl saw Ninja
