Re: Steps!!
According to the Portafold extras price list they did offer folding caravan steps for £1.85, so maybe.

Re: I have just got a Portafold
It has been painted at some point and it's all flaking off and will need painting again but what paint do you use? Neil, If the paint that's on there is flaking off I'd let it. Give it some encouragement with a scraper and maybe the use of some GRP boat paint stripper and take it back to its natura...

Re: Serial Numbers
These are the estimates I have of how many Portafolds were produced in each year. Thanks to a 1969 model owned by Neil (hads) I've been able to revise my figures slightly. 1966 - Anywhere between 1 and 66 1967 - Anywhere between 44 and 130 1968 - Anywhere between 109 or 195 1969 - Anywhere between 1...

Re: Portafold stickers or decals
Rob, I'm in the process of getting some done. It's actually my line of business as it happens. I have the exact measurements and the graphics files are ready to go but there are a couple of problems: 1) The originals had a chrome finish in the script of the Portafold lettering. If you look at the ba...

Goodwood Revival 17-19 September 2010
If you only go to one show this year, make it this one. It's not cheap, but it's by far the best day out all year. Even the 'pre 1966' car park has more classic cars in it than most car shows do. Going in period dress is a must! Don't think that you'll feel daft because believe me you'll feel a lot ...
