There is still an Austin based one getting about in WA
When I spoke to the owners a couple of years ago they told me that it had been all over Australia.
Will try and find my old photos.

Here are a couple of pics from the Pinjarah show last year

I love the old ceramic kettle and aluminium kettles.

After a day on the road on the way to camping myself, it seems that a 30k caravan is the roughing-it minimum...

80K might be a little optimistic dave. 80K might be the top speed out on the flat with a tail wind. :D
