G'day Gary & Kim, and a big welcome to the forum! ;D ;D I presume retro1, being the thorough and detailed man he is, has provided you with all the relevant information about your Baravan. But for anybody else who wants to see what a "master restorer" does to a van, have a look at these threads: This first thread is the restoration of the Baravan: My Baravan Caravan...and this second thread is the search for information, which struck a very lucky note!: Baravan caravan info wantedNo doubt Gary & Kim you are proud to own such a great little van! ;D Great to have you with us! cheers, Al.

thanks Al, we bought the van off Vicki & Mike who bought it off Retro1, they owned it for approx 6mths. They did 2 trips, phillip island was one. the reason they sold was they relocated to a condo and couldnt store her. It was a sad sale for them, but we are still smiling. Love at first site, Kym was nervous but i said were and when could you find another. so now we are busy finding old treasures to decorate. great fun. cheers Gary (need help for a name for the van, suggestions would be welcome everybody)
