Not sure what caravan I will have there yet as my little late 50's early 60's aluminium one I was rushing to get restored for this event can ease up a bit as I have bought a bigger 1956 bondwood one that I can take instead 8)
sounds like your gonna need a headstart fbwannabe, whatcha towing the van with?

Well, we have found a bit more rust in the fb then we have bargained for so I won't be bringing the fb to the nats :cry: . Typical story, a mini resto and quick tidy up blows out to a major teardown :roll: oh well the joys of owning a 49 year old car! Looks like I will be bringing the VS Vacationer instead, makes sense as this is a vacation for us :lol:
You won't be late with a 138!
