Hi there, the other day i got given a Portafold that has sat outside in a farmyard for 20 years, it needs new wheels and tyres but the bearings are ok, on the outside it is green and covered in algae etc...and i thought id try putting it up and had it done in 3 minutes!!!
Inside she is in quite good nick, I'll take it to steam rallies where I show my stationary engines..I ought to get a vehicle before I get a caravan but never mind!!! It looks very practical!
Wow, what a result..a free Porti...have you seen the E bay completed listing prices on Portafolds lately??
Well done, anything free is always a bargain All you need to do now is come up with a cunning plan for getting drive from your stationary engine to the wheels of the Portafold and you wont need the car!

Well here's some more photos after a bit of a clean up. The lid and bottom will be done once it's folded up again.
The artex type stuff on the ceiling wants stripping off.
Ooo, she's in quite good nic!! You'll soon have her ship shape.
Now will I have it ready for the rally in a fortnight?
