2100 miles. I could not have done it. I am glad that Hugh is well and back to hauling Minis again! Anyone got anything for him to haul back East?

As Hugh ( Dr Mini) was well known to everyone in the mini community because of his mini hauling service, folklore stories are rampant-
Hugh was never known to have expensive equipment ( other than when he had the two new F150 pickups) but that story is best left unanswered-
several years ago Hugh delivered a yellow moke to me in Niagara Falls NY. I had bought it as an unfinished project in MD, it was painted yellow but all in parts, it came with a crappy looking 848cc engine and tranny removed from the moke, Hugh asked me what l was going to do with the engine and as l had a fresh 998cc on hand, told him l wouLd probably sell it, Hugh said how much, l said $100.00 Hugh said $50.00, SOLD !
I was sending a gold moke to Aaron ( Metalwright) in Illinois and Hugh was taking it out that day.
Well Hugh pulled in driving a little Tracker pulling his dual axle trailer, but had no place on the trailer for the engine, no problem, he had us help him lift the engine onto the trailer hitch and he lashed it on to the frame ahead of the trailer, well this weight made the Trackers front end pop up, not pretty but Hugh and his Nephew left Niagara Falls NY , played tourist in the Falls for a couple days then drove to Illinois and completed the delivery.
Aaron still has that moke today
And the moke l got in MD, sold it twice, bought it back, sold it in CT, now for sale for $100,000.00, ( l S*** you not)
There are many more of these stories out there
