unusual FC vans

[cam58tiger]

Hi all

looking thru Don Loffler's new book 'Holden Days' I noticed something weird - the two FC panel vans in this pic have high rooves and ute doors...  Anyone seen one of these in the flesh?  What were they about?

cheers

Nice pic Cam

I'll have to have a look through his books for that one

Could they be utes with fancy canopies ?

Wouldn't grabbing one of those

Yes, when I saw them i was quite surprised as well. They appear to be body built specials, starting with a ute and adding a van or wagon roof panel. Looks very well done. I doubt they are Holden built.
They would have cost quite a lot to convert as well but would be stronger on a ute body than on a van base.
