Hello Mark? I live in Emmaville NSW and have recently purchased this Caravan and was wondering if you have seen or heard of one the same? It is entirely made of wood! including the Drawbar. It has independent suspension the only steel on it. The roof has a layer of what seems to be old fibreglass cloth? Or painted Canvas? It is well made and entirely sealed with plywood, even underneath. It looks like a flat bottomed boat umderneath! The springs for the suspension are on the outside of the Van as you may be able to see in the photo. I don't know whether it is registerable or not but am thinking of trying as it has been registered at one time. I cannot find any compliance plate on it either though it looks proffessionally made. I have also a C/van here from 1964 made by Jack Ratliffe and use it as a place for visitors to stay if they wish. This new caravan I am sure is older then it. Anyway if you can help me I would appreciate it. Thankyou.......Gary. P.S Thankyou for your Website.

Wow, outboard springs!! What an unusual van! I agree with Col, perhaps more pics would help.

Wot!! no windows (except at the front ) ? Apart from everything else.... the vacuum ? brake arrangement looks interesting too. I too would love to see some inside photos.... I think it is fair to say Gary, we haven't see it's like before, look after it Cobber.
