NOMAD CARAVANS
Manufactured by Hilandale and rebadged as Nomad caravans,
Stephensons Road, Mount Waverley, Vic
NOTE: There is no connection between these Nomad badged caravans and the Nomad caravans produced by the Transport Engineering Co in Sydney prior to World War II - click here

Hi men,I think Evernew also did some badge engineering before they became custom builders,because over the years I have seen Nomad,Skyline,Hilandale with Evernew stickers on them.
Nomad was a Hilandale sold and hired by a fellow in Mt Waverley in the sixties.He had about 6 in his front yard and more at the local servo.
Hope this helps somewhat.

Later that same day, Hughdeani responded:
Definitely a Hilandale,but has striping a la Evernew,instead of the standard lightning strike stripes.
Also that model was badged as a Skyline and for a short time Nomad,which was only available from a service station in Mt Waverley on Stephensons Rd in the 60s.
Cheers
