Hi All, In case anyone is interested, I have put our 1966 Expandavan up for sale on Ebay. As per Boblor (the guru) , our van is 1 of only 2 vans known to be made with a timber interior. Made by Helmsman Industries from Eildon in Victoria. We will be very sorry to see the Expandavan sold, but are having to downsize our fleet in readiness for our big (long) trip around the country. Hopefully it will go to someone who appreciates vintage vans as we do. Regards Di & Paul

Thanks shesgotthelook for putting the link up, much appreciated. Ray I didn't realise that a link had appeared, I didn't put it up, it appears to have happened automatically when the word "ebay" is typed. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Regards Di

Always sad to part with treasured items but sounds like an exciting reason!

Hi Bob, You must have forgotten our conversation about the chassis number. I think you were out at the time, so perhaps didn't get a chance to write it down. Not to worry, I will give you a call again soon. Di Willow5075, Yes it is sad to part with treasured items but we are starting to get slowly organised and very excited about the big trip. Regards Di

Hey Di,
We're hitting lots of dead ends with in our attempts to have our timber expandavan restored, so we're seriously considering putting in an offer on your van.
Just trying to figure out if/how/when we'd be able to get it down to Melbourne...
Do you have a timeframe for when you need it sold/gone?
Cheers, Russell

Hi All, Our Expandavan has sold recently to someone who already appreciates vintage vans They spent many happy hours as children away on caravan holidays It was collected on Wednesday by Dale (Chev51) and is being transported to VIC for the new owners. No doubt you will see it on various Vint Van trips in VIC in the future. Regards Di & Paul
