Just spent a few days on the farm down at Nerandera and I managed a few photos. It is owned/run by my "uncles", two brothers in their late 70's, both never married and lived on the place for all their lives. Whilst not caravans, the number of vintage vehicles parked up and/or still regularly used today, always amazes me . The methods and parts list used to construct the homemade horsefloat will appeal ,I think to most on this site as well. On top of that they have a range of brand new never sold spare parts for old 1920's,30's and 40's ,chevs and austins , all the old stock leftover from an old service stn engineering w/shop which they bought up when it closed down in the fifties. At least a dozen factory exhaust pipes(at a glance) plus a large assortment of other stuff much still in original boxes.. The parts are for sale,(the working vehicles are not) but this may take some organisation cause YOU will have to know what YOU are looking at and for!
Donricardo will post the photos and descriptions for me at his leisure when I send them to him at end of this week and I hope you will all enjoy them. I love the fact that the boys still use most of the equipment 50, 60 and in some cases 70 years down the track - as an aside it was also their caravan in the "van park flood photos" I posted a while back- I think it was at Wyndang if I remember correctly.(franklin1 could correct me on that)
pictures coming soon
