Our Touring Past

Wow what a trip, first up have been chasing this unusual van for over 12 months when suddenly out of the blue I received the news its yours come get it , it wasn’t a simple drive in drive out, it has been sitting on 180 acres in the middle of nowhere under a large tree, mad 4x4 tracks to get there, ...

Neat tidy Zestline, a paint job and a few trips comping up, cheers S4J https://s19.postimg.org/p0jv642sz/IMG_0945.jpg https://s19.postimg.org/ey9oh4d9v/IMG_0946.jpg https://s19.postimg.org/trjqo4vn7/IMG_0948.jpg https://s19.postimg.org/nzjmgzltf/IMG_0950.jpg https://s19.postimg.org/6nj9vjsc3/IMG_095...

Hi All,
Can any one tell me the largest rim that will suit an early Holden pattern, some say 15" Volvo, is there any others out there
Cheers Stephen

Hi All, Need suggestions on the correct tail light set up for this home made,looks like it didn't have any lights, could someone give me an idea on the correct period tail light set up(circa 1940) and where i might chase them up Cheers in advance Stephen http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/ee442/swj...

Too right George you might have a point there, thanks for the information
Cheers S&J

O the second owner said that even thou the old under carriage was removed in the early days it still came with the van, he said it had 22inch Wimpet wooden wheels and axle, what ever that was it would have been high off the ground he said, he sold it to a car restorer
Cheers Steve

Hay Reddo, hard to say on weight probably around the ton, there's a weigh bridge 30m from the last photo will find out soon enough,funny but this van has sat outside for the past 30 + years with no signs of ingress, needs a few minor replacements around the bottom rim but over all who ever made this...

Hi,
All ready for new undercarriage



Cheers S4J
