After making the purchase in May last year, we finally retrieved our new van over the weekend. It's a very long story - don't ask! 
It had been sitting for a while, I think it had become something of a local landmark.
We couldn't find any kind of brand name, and were thinking at first that it might have been a Kennedy. A little digging through the forum led us to a Franklin Futura - but more on that later!
All hooked up and ready to head home.
Could do with a bath.
Anyone know what year that rego plate is from?
We discovered this while washing it.....
And a little careful sanding with ultrafine revealed this - Korong 14'. That led to more research on the forum, re the Korong name. Interesting!
A few hours cleaning, and the inside looked a whole lot more presentable than when it arrived home.
Funky venetians at both ends.
Should I leave the roof top garden?
Starting to look a lot more civilised.
Disappointing that the broken windows have let water in which has damaged the plywood. Still, it will be a fun project!
cheers
