G'day Red

Did you and prem get to go through the antique /collectable place on the weekend at Lakes Entrance?

bit of vintage caravan stuff there ...I went twice to the complex and both times bought a few items ...few clocks in the place

I even bought an item that had sportsman on it ......I bought it to give it to sportsman1 next time I catch up with him

I forgot to show you and prem over the weekend

Ralf & Di was a bit stiff doing a big end in the Holden I guess they saved a bit of fuel  with the car coming home on the tray truck

cheers

Found one! But it might cost you $600! Have a look at pics 6 & 7 of this Gumtree listing... www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/kilsyth/caravan/vintage-caravan/1042270803
Perhaps you could make an offer for the clock alone?
Cheers, Helen.

Hey Hellsbells,

Martin and I had a look at the pictures on the link you provided and took your advice and rang Ken about his van/clock. He couldn't have been more helpful, agreed to sell me the clock at a very reasonable price!

Picking it up tonight.

Many thanks,

Martin.

I've been doing some research! The clock in red's opening post is a 60's vintage "Equity" brand. Maybe they were fitted to some 60's Franklin, Vacation etc, vans?
Found another....
