Subject:Re: Fitting an organ into a minivan

I use a Ford Econovan, medium wheelbase and have moved a console organ plus Leslie. Currently using a Yamaha EL-90, two Leslie 720's and a 540. I had a cabinet maker make up a 1-1/2" blackbutt timber base for the organ and had Yamaha 'slimline' castors made up locally to go into the bottom of the wooden base. Piano trolley to get organ to the back of the van, then use 6' wooden ramps at the back of the van.
My only question is just 'how heavy' is the Hammond. It might be a backbreaking effort.
