What an awesome van. Would love to see more pics of the van inside and out . I saw a brother to this van I think?  Check out "Diner2 makes new friend?? " in the general section of the forum. It is a true credit to you and I hope no-one bursts your bubble...........LOL ;D    |

Fantastic job on the inside of the van it is a credit to both of you. If you ever come to South Oz drop me a line as I would love to have a closer look. Love the flames on both but I'm a little bias ( have flames on my PT cruiser ) You friend Dean's van looks great as well and would love to see more pics on that one as well.. Happy Vanning ;D |

;D More photos. these are of the Sunliner just after we started it.  and this is inside Deanno's - completely original as he bought it for $500 at a deceased estate auction. Unfortunately the annex went into another auction lot.   This is Colin and Vicki's work in progress.....  and finally this is Our sunliner and the new friends we met on our first campout - Brett and Cindy are from Murwillumbah in north NSW. The rest of us are in Brisbane (southside) Enjoy  |

Love the classic shape of the 50s chevs rounded guards and roofline to my mind the best looking chevs ever made nice car Debby its great to see you and Darren have such a great passion for beautiful things from the past one of our members Billy Cork has a 50 chevy as well he is grafting HG front end into it at the moment I will post a Photo for you when Billy gets back from Bali the car looks great regards Will |

Thanks guys!
we have a hk to do the graft for the front end, you can just see it in the background.
The towbar is hot on the list and and auto is even hotter, so i can drive her finally - Darren is just stalling I am sure, maybe i should remind him who drives when we go out - you know the classic about sharing the driving - he drives there i drive home,, (i don;t drink much so he likes to partake)
Have a great Easter!!
Deb

luv the Chev Deb ..........looks great ..... ....they're really just a bigger FJ Holden, or should I say the FJ is a smaller version of the Chev ;D The HK in the background looks like a Brougham with the extended quarter panel ....... Excuse my ignorance, but why is the HK/T/G Holden front end conversion popular for the old Chev Mark |

The chev only has drum brake all round and the hk/g/t - some of - i think have disc front ends.. safer to stop with the lovely bubble in tow.. we had to use the abs on the new ford on the way to Yamba with the van in tow so now I think I am paranoid about braking. I'm not sure which came first, the chicken or the egg, oops I mean the chev or the FJ/X. I must admit that we used to have an FJ, (Darrens first hotted car) and I think that is the reason he loves to drive the Chev.. he's going to get booted out of the drivers seat real soon hopefully, (an extension to the left leg may be in order to reach the pedals!!) Still at work, bugger, waiting waiting waiting....... still at work, still at work, uuurgh!!!!! Deb |

Deb Wouldn't have the "hockey stick" bit of chrome at the front of the drivers front guard from the Holden?....or a good interior(Beige buckets prefferred)

are we talking the hk?? if so I will check out the chrome. The buckets were beige but the guy from up the road swapped a carton of Corona's for them... Darren enjoyed that!!!
