For Sale, this 1969 Franklin Caravalle, Serial Number 1605-9 (thanks Franklin1 for your detailed page on dating) 4500mm over the main body, the 'eyebrows' add another 200mm I guess, 2110 wide,
2500 high (to top of flue vent) with full sized wheels on, clears 2350 opening with small wheels on. The roof shape appeals (to myself) as do the double camber types, so fell in love with it straight away.
Two spare wheels for those big trips, just in case! Over-ride hydraulic brakes. Always garaged & well looked after by very fussy people. Curtains need re-doing I think.
Paint your own coloured stripe to suit! Some nice chrome hubcaps would help too.
upgrade frig with bigger freezer compartment, gas & electric
A bit of wear & tear on the kick & bottom of these two doors, easily trimmed up.
A full sized Annexe in top condition
A Full length Fly if the Annexe isn't used on some occasions, also a 'Duck' cover for the floor of the Annexe with plastic to go under it.
These wheels have been welded with centres to suit the hubs, alows the van to be lowered to slip under a 2350mm Garage door opening.
Anyone interested please contact me by PM or email,
Everything works, ( it needs a polish.)
I have shown the couple of dents, overall very good condition for a 45 year old van, & wouldn't go to this bother if I didn't think it is a 1st class item.
$3500 or best offer, it HAS to be sold.
I will leave it here for a week or so, to see if there is any interest, if not, it will be listed on ebay.
Just hitch up & go, nothing to spend on this one.
Cheers.... Surf Tragic
