DONS set the benchmark in their day. this van came stnd with lead light windows , a fold down hand bason & a bath tub hidden under a front seat among other luxury features
cheers trev Title: Re: Vintage Caravan Run Post by: fcfromscratch on May 06, 2004, 12:44:12 PM hmmmmmm, Sept/Oct......that's a bit of a challenge, eh??
we'll do our best...but this is the first caravan we've ever built so not absolutely sure about how long it takes.....took us 5 years to do the FC if that's any guide...haha...but we plan to have the teardrop done for Jindabyne at the latest...... I can quite believe you about FC + Van turning heads... cheers......Brad Title: Re: Vintage Caravan Run Post by: HARKO on June 05, 2004, 01:21:55 PM How cooool is the lovshak - I wanna live there 8)
