OOOHH!, it's an early one.

Flat roof, sliding windows.

It's had the rear seat conversion though. I don't think I want one that is not so original.

I reckon you could sell it to a Pom. "Yeah, its had a bit of panel work to restore it - new floor, roof, doors, side panels, front and rear beaver panels, all new interior, all new mechanicals. Thankfully I was able to save the FR wing and the front bumper, so it's still the same van."
:lol: :lol: :lol:

So, did you get the numbers?

Cheers,
Watto. :shock:

I think it is an Ausi van - 1963/4.
Has a number stamped in the radiator cowl, and the cut outs under the front gaurds for extra air flow to the brakes.
Bit hard to detect the drain holes in the roof gutter - nout much of the gutter left.

I'll guarantee it's an Aussie van - the removable grille is a dead give-away.

Flat roof means it was built between February 1964 and late-1966.

Cheers,
Watto. :shock:
