  1. I've enjoyed reading other people's 'other' projects including campervan stuff so will try to post some non-car-related stuff I get up to when I'm not working on the Levin/Corolla/Subaru or Lexus.... So we purchased this sight-unseen at the other end of the north island. Previous owner had stripped it back, had a baby and then realised how much work it is. What could go wrong?!? Last weekend, I towed from Paraparaumu back to palmy with the front of the body flapping around in the wind, roof collapsing etc. 100% dodgy. Wasn't actually attached as welds had broken. It's a 15ft generic 80's caravan. 1930mm inside height currently. Bearings and frame seem to be in OK condition, everything else needs some work. Good thing it was cheap. Aiming for basic use summer 2024 and completion by summer 2025 as finishing the Levin is taking the priority currently. We were looking for a blank canvas to start with so this should be perfect once we address some key issues; - Replace roof skin & frame. Aiming to make it 100mm higher in the centre - Replace front and rear panels (lower) - Relocate a few windows - Repair frame, particularly where it's been cut to run elec wires. Might rebuild parts of it to allow optimal window placement. - sandblast & paint frame. New tow hitch/weld mounting plate - New brake calipers (brackets and discs already there) - maybe replace 12mm floor with new ply Have now propped up the roof and bolted the frame back to the trailer in preparation for towing it back to Hamilton.
  2. So with the Wagon season upon us, longer days, warmer weather and sunny days, it's time for some casual camping, wagoneering, vanning, sedaning, etc Going to keep this thread going, people can suggest places and dates and see what works for people or Doesnt work for anyone at all even. So Far, we have the 16th of December locked in for Otaki Forks, However that seems for ever away and we can deff do something before then. CatchPool Valley in Wainuiomata is always good for a Casual. And Considering trying battle hill Farm as a close casual also. SO yeah, start suggesting dates, places etc I am pretty much always keen for camping. I have no plans besides the 9th of December. Have wagon, will sleep. Current dates: 11th of November - catchpool valley camp ground, wainuiomata. 16th of December - Otaki forks, Otaki.
