Funny you should mention that Eric, yesterday afternoon I had the air on on full, nice and cool, then I noticed a steady drip of condensation into the footwells. Shocked
What a job that is, sure enough the valve was blocked when we eventually found it with the aid of a mirror. Mines most inaccessible above the gearbox. We eventually blew it out with the air line, but got soaked in the process.

Gave up on the idea of Kelmarsh because of the poor weather forecast. Instead, went to Worstead Festival in Norfolk which is a lot nearer for me.

This is a cracking show and still has the rural village feel about it.

The Starting Handle Club had large display and I found these nestled between grey Fergusons and Ford Dexters

And whilst I was having a mooch around, eyeballed this beauty parked up the hill from the display

A really nice 130 and it looked in excellent condition. This would look spot on parked on my drive!

I believe the weather put a bit of a damper on yesterdays attendance, but today looked good. Such a shame and I ended up carrying a brolly round the show without the need to use it in anger which was a bit of a bonus.

Rashers, I'm probably not the only one on the forum who thinks that the 130 Camper would look spot on in the middle of Patagonia or the Mongolian Steps. Unless of course you're not telling us something and your drive is actually a UNESCO World Heritage Site... Whistle Monsieur Le Grenadier

I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....

Fitted mine a few years back, a bit of fettling with the plastic column trims but well worth doing. Thumbs Up

Today I took my NAS Step off prior to taking it to getting it blasted and powder coated...only to discover that it’s like bloody rice paper in places! Either getting scrapped or I’ll need to find a welder before the powder coat dude will go anywhere near it!

5 1/2 years and its rotten through! Ridiculous.

don't bother with powdercoat. Finish is great, looks great, but underneath it rusts without you knowing. I honestly don't know why it's used.
