I would guess its a Valiant wagon. Some people call them Chryslers. Maybe should check with Schultzy to make sure.

Hi mickwoodvan,
Welcome to the V V forum.
You've done a terrific job on your van and it's a beautiful match with the Val. Congratulations on a great looking outfit.
Will is quite probably right in his suggestion about the van being a Ravan - he usually is about these things! There is some information about Ravan caravans scattered around, but we don't have any entry in the Down History Lane section as yet. (I will begin to rectify that oversight based on Will's info now.)
What state are you in, and do you know anything about your caravan's history (ie where its previous owner(s) lived)? In the 40's, 50's and early 60's there were dozens of caravan manufacturers (not to mention home builders) who in many cases only sold caravans in their local area or state. If you are in WA and/or your van has spent most of its life in WA that would add weight to Will's suggestion.
Thanks for showing us your van. I'm looking forward to hearing more about it.
Don Ricardo
