New Sunliner pics 09

[dorian]

G'Day V Vanners,

Here are some new pics of the Sunliner as promised to various folk. Trying to keep it original as possible but had to give it a big clean (still some way to go - esp cushions), imported fabric from US and had curtains made (old ones felt apart in my hands), and put in new lino floor. Also started on the POR 15 on the chasis. Still to do the respray on the exterior but well on the way! Had a wonderful time meeting all the other Sunliners at Forster for the 50th. Humpty, Spyder and Sue and Stewart all gave me great advice and went out of their way to help me get the old gal to rego. Big thanks guys.

Loved Chippy Dave's Sunny pics. As you can see, almost a match!

Cheers,
Dorian

Thanks for the pics, a fantastic example and very inspirational. I have wanted one of these one of these plastic fantastics since I was a kid, you have re-enforced my ideas.


Dorian, could you forward the link for the curtain material please? There are few outlets here in Melbourne, but not what we want and the correct quantity.

Cheers Impala. Kind of you. Will PM you Flattop!

Hey Dorian

Love all the retro gear inside as well as the Sunny itself....
A few personal touches and you will be on the highway in no time.

She is a great example of a sixties van

Not envious at all....

All the best

Cheers Atog! She is registered. Just needs a lick of paint for the exterior.
Yeah, the retro canisters help a bit with the look. Where is Harden? ACT?

Great sunny and one of the best vans you will ever tow in a lifetime if not the best 110kmh all day ,Gets you to your destination quicker and your first beer earlier .Cheers Dave

Harden is on the other side of Yass from ACT , not too far. Where are you Dorian? I will be passing thru there in April so if you are after a specific colour or condiment in those containers, I can have a look , take a photo if you like. I took a photo last time but I can,t remember whether I sent it to DonR to post on my behalf when he finds the time. I will ask him. When i went there last time my mate and I where laughing....... 20 years ago we would have stopped at 3 pubs onroute to Neranderah - this time it was 3 antique bricabrac shops!!! regards Jennison
