I bought it from a chap on vzi, turned up at the right time and price. It has all the original interior and an awning.
It's all Justin's fault.

:lol:

:lol: it's gonna be like a pikey site this show season :!:
 
Today I made a start on the Rapido's electrics, and have mostly been removing lots of trailing extension leads.

Nice new cabling.

As there was a hole in the side already I fitted an external socket,

and then put another in the storage box for the 3 way fridge.

Just need to fix the cabling back and then locate a Zig unit for the 12V wiring.

I don't think it would have been possible to do this last summer, but hopefully we'll have a heatwave this year.

Didn't take long to remove the corner, filler and fibreglass. The battery tray fell out after a tap with me boot.

That took a while to remove, made a bit of a mess.

All locked up in the workshop now, with the rear corner resting in place ready for tomorrow. :)
 
jees Sparky you have no fear, you just hack in and fix it up proper. Wish I was that brave. Aint been on for a couple of months due to laptop issues and you've got loads changed. Its getting like triggers broom, 17 new heads and 14 new handles but still the same broom

You doing Camperjam this year, would like to come have a look at the progress in a year, mine still looks the same :oops: even though the 'to do' list is getting bigger

Keep on keeping on :D

Not at CamperJam this year, fell out with Mears over the additional £10 fee to take a camper to a camper show.
 
Right then, where were we.

Needs a bit of fettling to fit properly. Strange that the off-side almost fell into place while this one is being a bit of a bugger.
All fixed, except for a plate on the chassis leg.

^^^ I'll second that :lol: you can change panels in less time time than it takes some to change the oil :lol: :lol: :lol:










Does getting rid of the filler mean you can carry more cider now :msn4:
