Desparately Seeking.....A Bondwood Van:)))

[charlie67]

Hello all,
I would love to buy a bondwood van, preferable in good condition but am ok if require restoration. I love all things vintage and would ideally love to use for weekend trips and as extra accommodation for the interstate visitors. I don't mind if exterior is in need of t.l.c but would like interior to be in good nick. Happy to shop Australia wide and am extremely happy to have found this network!!! Looking forward to hearing from you, Cheers!
P.s thanks for the help on earlier post

Hi Charlie67,

Welcome to the forum - and to the V V obsession!

Where abouts are you based? That will help us to know where to point you to. For example if you live in Perth, you may not be interested in a van in Cairns.

If you're in Victoria, or not too far away, there's a little bondwood van currently on Gumtree here: www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/bentleigh/caravan-campervan/1950s-vintage-caravan/1006022469

I've been looking at some of the ones on some threads and love the style/model of one that is part of the farm clearance auction in Gilgarre, Victoria.... Any info on that make, model would be appreciated and any similar makes also. Sooo much to learn!
