Options
You can have your kit delivered by employing the
services of a road transport contractor or you can let
JBA arrange this for you.
JBA uses the services of Bernard Williamson, 151
Southport New Road, Tarleton, Near Preston, Lancashire,
PR4 6HX. An enthusiastic veteran owner and refurbisher,
who has the knowledge and experience in transporting
kits.
On the other hand if you want to collect the kit
yourself, read the guide lines below.
Collecting Yourself
Collecting your car from the factory, remember the
length of the car.
The Falcon Sports is 150 inches that is 12'6", or 3810
mm.
The Falcon TSR is 165 inches long that is 13'9", or 4191
mm long.
You will need a trailer able to accommodate the size of
the chassis that you are collecting.
A boat
trailer is not suitable, you will also need rope or
straps to secure your kit to the trailer and a net or
hap to protect all the various bits that are stowed in
the CBU, which sits on the chassis.
Also corrugated paper and sticky tape for the windscreen
and sidescreen glass.
 Alternatively
a Transit Luton type van. Hire a diesel engine Transit
as they are far more economical than the petrol
version.
The front part of the chassis sits on top of the Luton
that is the front part which sits over the cab, in an
almost identical fashion as the bottom blue lines of the
Clarkson logo on this van. The other parts of the kit
are stored on the floor of the van and underneath the
chassis behind the cab.
Remember to measure the inside of the van diagonally
from the front of the Luton down to the bottom of the
back door, for the kit you are collecting, as vans come
in varying lengths.
If you are collecting a donor vehicle package from JBA
at the same time, this is the ideal type of van.
 If
you are collecting a rolling chassis with the steering,
engine, gearbox, propshaft, diff and back end fitted
then hire a proper
car transporter trailer to suit the length of
your kit.
This is the safest option for a rolling chassis, but it
must be secured to the trailer properly with straps.
Look at how the rescue services do it.
JBA will temporarily fit the CBU to the chassis and
store various parts of the kit inside it including the
wings.
You must cover the CBU with a tarpaulin to keep the
contents secure.

Central Body Unit
This photo
shows the Sports kit with the CBU with the wings
temporarily attached at the factory.
Various
components of the car are stowed inside the CBU for
transportation, including the wings, doors, windscreen
frames etc. if you are using a flat or transporter
trailer.
The front wings on the Sports are 8 feet long and the
TSR wings are longer still.
Now that
all the information has been dealt with, it's now down
to the real thing, with proper photos.
The next page deals with parts of the kit.
