Unfortunately I can’t make Trevor’s meet up, but the last weekend this month could suit me.

Nice, we need to organise a 70 series meet up

Just going to miss this, I'm not due to arrive back in the UK until 23 September.........

Like I say, All American have always been very helpful sorting parts out for my Troopy cross referencing the part numbers / VIN number.

www.all-american.nl Have been very helpful in the past.

Once again, I miss the dates by a week.............. maybe next time.

Cheers Guys, I’ll probably end up going down the Krown route.

Google Pro Touring Concepts, they manage / coordinate builds for customers and do some very nice work.

Cheers, I have emailed Buzzweld.

I want to get my Troopy rustproofed before the winter. When I had my 80 series I go the underside treaded by Rustbuster’s at Spalding and was pretty happy with the service and results, but I wondered what other options are available. So far I know of Rustbusters and Krown, but not sure of the...

I believe so, but not tried myself.

Been using Redarc DCDC chargers for a few years now, very happy with them........ they perform well.

Used, I'd already owned the vehicle for about 3 years before it was imported.

I have an imported a VDJ78 from Australia, using a door to door service from https://mycarimport.co.uk/

Looks nice, but I think I will keep my Troopy.......

He will be missed, RIP

Older truck used DC drive, but AC requires much less maintenance.

Electric A/C dive, the engine (MTU 20V 4000 series) drives an alternator..... similar to a locomotive.

I use to work on Liebherr T282 Haul Trucks, I’m still working for them but back to excavators.

I just did a brake upgrade on my Troopy, first impression....... why did I bother, but 200 miles later things improved.

Today I installed a battery monitoring system (Victron BMV-712 Smart) on the the auxiliary battery

New discs and brake booster installed

I’m sure from a social side it was great, but as a show it was very poor. I did walk past your camp area, but everyone was busy so didn’t bother anyone.

Just had a walk around the show, not much to see.... Overpriced for sure, at the most it’s a £5 show.

Well I’ve been busy this week fit pars to my Troopy, next is to standardise all the switches.

I did email them, didn’t speak prices but he said he would send whatever I wanted in the next shipment to AirOnBoard UK.
