Hi,
You should look through the "down history lane" & research Sunliners.
We've all been through explaining before, & really we have an enormous amount of history recorded here.
But basically, Sunliners were built in Forster NSW from 1958. The first ones had 2 fixed Perspex wrap around windows front & rear, with hinged side windows. These side windows were fibreglass framed, & had an eyebrow above them. They had removeable wheel covers (spats), & had no mouldings or ridges on the sides.
The first lot run till around 1960.
Then they added ribs below the side windows, took off the spats, & added a rib trailing from the wheel wells. Side windows were a mix of fixed glass & aluminium framed hinged ( from the top).
Front windows went to all sorts , dependent on what was ordered. They were also built in Bundaberg, as a Gracemur.
There are so many different ones, that unless you produce a photo, no one can help you identify accurately
They went out of business around 1965.
There you go, a 2 minute summary of 8 years of production.
As I said, look into our records, its very likely you will see what you are looking for.

Hi Banno
Coming along nicely but no windows? (Don't want to buy curtains eh?)
Look forward to watching your creativity
