Supalite Wee Kenda

[Richard]

A couple of weeks ago I received an email from Lyn who live in Wahroonga, about an old ply caravan that they had.

Here are a few of the photos Lyn emailed.

So after a couple more emails Linda and I drove to Sydney last weekend to have a look.
It turned out that I was spot on with the brand as the badge on the wardrobe door confirmed that it was a Supalite

The little Wee Kenda was owned by Lyn's inlaw's, and the van was purched new by them in 1954. Up untill 12 months ago the van had spent its whole life in a garage and was very usable, but 12 months out in the elements and under several trees has taken its toll on the little van. It looks OK from the front and sides but the back tells a different story.

The Wee Kenda loaded on the trailer ready for the trip home. I did say that the back had copped a bit of weather, so we had to brace the back as the back on the right hand side has a fair bit of rotter timber.

Lyn also gave me some of the rego papers for the van, and this 1985 rego was the earliest that she had kept.
