Freight MELB-BRIS

mattp · 05-09-2006, 07:53 PM

Hey all, anyone got any idea as to who is good to use to transport an interior from Melbourne to Brisbane? I'm in Melbourne for a holiday and I just bought myself an full black leather interior (front/back seats and 4 door trims) from an AUII XR6 and need to get them back to Brisbane! Also, any idea on what sort of costs might be involved? If it's going to be too much I might just drive down at the end of the year and do the change-over down here. Thanks in advance, Matt.
ps. On a side note, anyone want to buy a Warm Charcoal velour interior in great condition out of an AUI Fairmont? Melbourne or Brisbane, depending on how I end up proceeding.

Why not take it will you, in your luggage? (Assuming your flying)
Would be alot cheaper, then post.

thats a great idea, just think he can use his nice new leather SEATS on the plane and even rest his arm on the door trims...i have no idea how you would even get them on a plane...

back to the point, i think your best bet would be with toll or tnt road freight

The luggage hold, you know where all the luggage goes? Under the plane.

well you give it a try and let me know how you go...2 front seats, a rear seat and 4 door trims...hmmm i think not considering on a domestic flight you can only have one or two bags in the cargo hold

Actaully you have a maximum of 20kg, after that it costs abit more.. but its price per extra kilo.

But as long, as you want to winge. Go check the qantas web site

I got a heavy gearbox from BNE-MEL, for $190.

Speak to Duffman... He got his whole interior sent up from FTG.

Goodluck!! Cheers

I have got a mate that runs Melbourne to Brisvegas every couple of weeks, he may be able to do it for you, but you would have to meet him some where like Rocklea as he is quite often in a B-Double.

BAH!! So it was YOOUUU!!! :P

You're getting this interior from Karl of St Albans aren't ya mate? Lol, I was afraid this might happen - I rang him last week and told him I'd come have a look at the interior this week because I was so busy with work.

I then saw it up on eBay with pics and all, and then I saw how clean it was (bar the white chewy mark on driver's seat.) Next thing I know, he ends the eBay auction on Sunday, so I rang him Monday and he told me it was sold...I was shattered

: lol :P

Say, uhhh, how'd ya like to make a cool $200 profit for it? That's right, I'll give ya $1100 for it?

:

If not, bon appetite mate, I'll keep searching!

Good luck with the searching Richo86, this one's going in the fairmont I'm afraid!
