Default Info on Rob van Meel

Has anyone done business with or know Rob van Meel out of Holland?

He has a website that is one of the only places I can find a reprint of the complete MB-C2 manuals but it isn't put together real well and there are no dates on it to show the website is current.

http://www.robvanmeel.nl/

Just want to know before I try to place an order with him.

I know Rob, he is a reputable guy. Reproduces many manuals. If you cannot find an original, buy a repro off him.

Yes, I met him last May during the Apeldoorn Liberation Parade when we were driving Canadian veterans through town.
Try contacting him via http://www.robvanmeel.nl/?q=content/contact if you want to make sure he's handling orders.

HTH,
Hanno
