I know !! Ray, can you believe that he didn't even have the decency to call me and tell me and offer me his asking price!!! Anyway, as i said i fell out-of-love with it anyway. I took Mum to see it and she wasn't jumping out of her skin with excitement over it, so i knew it wasn't right for us.
But on a brighter note, I took Mum to Rodz Rock n Roll today too and she loves the vans as much as i do. Honestly, the beautiful, warm and friendly community you have all created on this site is magic !!
I'll find mine and share it soon enough.

Oh My Gosh ! Those photos are soooo funny !! Someone was clearly not watching the kids when they were suppose to. This is going to be one awesome project to watch.
I will find my baby when the time is right. I'm in no rush. So i'll keep looking over fences and see what happens.
Until then i will continue to enjoy everyone else vans. I finally got to see Jellybean today and Sutcac's van at Rodz Rock n Roll in Brisbane. Sooo cool!

I think if this van was in Brisbane you'd have two lovely ladies (me and Miss Molly) fighting over this van. Such a cutie.

To be honest, i changed my mind about the van anyway. It's bigger than i wanted and when he was taking so long to tell me a price i knew he was playing silly buggars. No great loss to me to be honest.

Yes... Ray is the Angel of this forum (well to me anyway) !!
You should definitely PM Ray to ask about this van. He is a complete encyclopedia on Rowvans and invaluable to anyway. I am forever grateful to King Ray !!
Great van and a great buy. So glad that a fabulous van is headed to Queensland.
Ray you are a CHAMPION !!

No Way !!! I am from Qld and was also bidding on that Rowvan!! Too funny. But i had to go into a meeting just before the bidding ended and also my budget couldn't factor in the transporting up to Brisbane and then the repairs that it would need as well to respect it's rarity. But like you said, i think it was meant to be as you vacationed there as a child. Congratulations. So happy for you!
Please make sure you post the photos of the restoration you do to it here.

Ray, what you've just said is exactly what Mum keeps saying when i keep missing out on the one's i like... "another one will come up".
The couple that own this van are 87 years old and don't have a computer so are waiting for their family to help them research an appropriate price. I took over the information on the litecraft that you lead me to the other day as he wasn't sure what type of van it was.
Like you said, you can't attach yourself... in any case i really do dream of a 10 footer... so if this one passes me by, it's okay. I love Cruz' Globetrotter but i know of another member who has their eye on it, so will wait to see their decision first.
I will certainly keep you posted on any developments. And if you hear of any 10' ... let me know

Haha!! I am still waiting to hear back from the owners of this litecraft. They haven't decided on a price yet! Grrrr... If it's meant to be it's meant to be. I've got my Mum onboard now too. She's got her backs packed ready to go on holidays with me too. Yipppeeeee !! Come on... you know you've got one that i want! Sharing is caring

Ray, you are out-of-control !!! Wow !!! You are stop on with the details. The lovely man has told me that it is plywood covered with aluminium. So is exactly what you are suggesting. I will have a look now.
As soon as he calls me back with the asking price i will post it here as it's such a magnificent van and he is such a gorgeous man. But it is DEFINITELY up for sale... for the right price i guess. (watch this space)
I do love this van, but i also have my heart set on a petit baby one of 10 foot. Those 2 feet really do make a bit different.
Thanks for the identification. Will look at it now. Ray, you are a champion

The table and cushions weren't set up, because i surprised the owners and randomly knocked on their door... poor things But you can see the cushions are even wrapped up in a protective cover. So everything is well looked after

In my search for my perfect van i came across this beauty. I've convinced the lovely gentleman to sell it. While he is deciding on a price can someone help identify what it is. It's 12 foot 6' long, 6' wide. Is absolutely stunning inside and been used for family holidays in Queensland up until last Christmas. It's located in Brisbane.

Oh yes it's sooo cute. It's exactly the same as Brian's from the Motorfest . I love it, but i think it's that tiny bit too small for what i want. It's soooo gorgeous though, i love Brian's too

HaHaHa ... seriously, i don't think there is a vintage van out there that i don't know about at the moment. I'm trying to self-educate, and plus i could just dream the day away with the beauty of them all.
