I made them from 4130 Chrome Moly tube and plate. I painted them with aviation primer inside and out to ward off corrosion! I've si...

Interesting camper in Western Australia

Gday all, I found this on gumtree:

Engine colour

Gday all. While researching for my restoration I've noticed a couple of Dormobiles with 4 cylinder petrol engines painted dark blue instead of the typical egg shell green, as per the picture. Is this just a cruel coincidence or did it serve a specific purpose? Easy identification on the production l...

Re: Carawagon in NSW?

Very kind offer Jerryd but I'm more than happy with my Dormy :mrgreen:

Although there must be someone out there who can give the thing a bit of love! I've been watching it on Gumtree for a couple of weeks and no one has claimed it. Hence the notice on the forum :tiphat:

Re: WANTED: Round Smiths heater

I understand completely R-Rose and generally I subscribe to the same idea. But after standing patiently in my driveway for nearly a year I think it's time my Dormy project got a cash injection. Goodness knows it won't come from the financial manager!! :shakehead:
