Long before there were ipads,..... iphones, ......and other such "i" devices, there was a caravan simply named " iwanda".........and what a great name for a caravan! now Cobber, before you get your knickers in a knot about the use of non slot head screws in the resto, .......Scott from Scott's Caravan Repairs in Rockingham has done a great job in preserving the caravan during its resto..........yes, he has used those screws, .........but the caravan is otherwise original in every detail. Built by a returned digger from W W 11 , the caravan was based on ......yep , you guessed it! ......Don caravans of the time ......its very much a lantern roof Don ! It was first registered in 1946. Darling Ranges WA no plates anyone for a bath the workmanship in the caravan is supurb, .......as is a Don ! Mark

Yeah it's OK Mark....I'm cool, like Iris I noticed all the slot heads everywhere else except on the name plate.... wouldn't be hard to fix by the owner. By the way.... does it have a new owner Thanks for the photo of the ice box .... and the tea towel rails look like home made jobs, that's good A decent photo of the tow coupling would have been appreciated too Nice old van aye ? really interesting inspecting these old vans that didn't come out of a mass production sausage machine and seeing how blokes used their imagination and improvised Cobber.
