We have been offered a limited number of free weekend passes for any Split taking part in a Classics display at the International Campervan Show to be held at Stratford upon Avon Racecourse on 25-26 April 2020. I have spoken with the organisers today and they tell me we will camp in the display area...

I have been asked by the family of Julian Collinge if the SSVC can assist in the sale of his much loved and admired 63 Devon Caravette. Please take the time to read this thread so you understand the circumstances of the sale. https://www.ssvc.org.uk/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=123842 From there you wi...

Julian, who lived in Leicester and was known as Monkey Knuts on here, was a long standing club member for many years. His van was his pride ...

Make sure it's out of gear. Check it's out of gear again. Ignition on, get underneath and with an insulated handled screwdriver short across the starter motor connections. If it turns over you know the starter is good. Problem will then be the wiring or the ignition switch.

Do these things end up on the iplayer so we can all see them?

There will be a line up but according to the map put out by Busfest in the programme it will be by the main arena. Rikki will get it sorted wherever we end up...

There is no easy way to alter the height on a cut and turned beam, you'd be better off using the adjustable beam you have in the shed.

If it's not adjustable and not dropped spindles then it sounds like a cut and turned beam. Proper old school. If you're happy with the height just cut the bump stops off and enjoy...
