Rare 1960/62 jennison pathfinder alum van with twin portholes, factory hot shower and working JONES Dolly wheel.
Watertight with min work required inside. Still has original venetian blinds and curtains.
The chassis will need sandblasting/heavy wire brushing, priming and painting.
The rest of the outside is weathered & faded but intact.
It currently has vacuum brakes fitted.
A very rare piece of VV history.
I would like to see it go to a true VV enthusiast so I can see it on the road at future VV gettogethers.
This vans condition is well within the average handy persons skillset to achieve a top restoration and you will own a genuine ONE OF A KIND example of Australias touring past
regards
jennison

It must be painful to let this van go Jeff considering your family's connection to it.
I too hope it goes to a home that will do something with it and restore in the fashion it deserves.

Hi Dave.
I have heard that this van has now been sold. I wonder who has purchased this very rare piece of our touring past.

Wow Dave.
That's some serious restoration work there. You certainly don't muck around do you.
