Hi, I'm new to the forum. I recently brought an older style caravan and I have a couple of questions. Now I am trying to find the correct name of it. It states "Executive styline Deluxe' on the stickers, however a few forums have said that alot of Vic dealers re branded these. Late 70's model that i am sure off any help / direction OR even pics would help me a great deal. all I know is, it is 22.5ft long thanks in advance

G'day Dinga155, You are correct regarding the 'Styleline Executive' brand name. It was used on every caravan sold by Doug Thorley - you'll find more information by clicking on this link. Your van looks as if it's from the post-vintage era, meaning that it was built after 1969. You may find out more about your caravan if you post your question on the Classic Caravan forum (for vans built between 1970 and 1979) - click here. Hope that helps.  Don Ricardo |

Hi Dinga,
Unfortunately your van is one of hundreds that were built for Doug Thorley caravan dealer in the seventies.
They were all badged Executive Styline Deluxe.there won't be any other id to claim otherwise.
Doug got all the little builders in Melbourne to build vans to a price so anyone could afford them.
I've seen a few like yours over the years,but I think the company that built them went under as soon as Doug got another manufacturer to build cheaper.
Also as an aside,no major manufacturers built stock for him,he just put his stickers under theirs,eg Viscount.
Hope this is of some help to you.
Cheers
hughdeani

Hi Dinga155, I'm not sure what you are referring to in your last post, ie what you can't do? However, I note that Hughdeani has provided you some further information about your van, which may have provided the answers to your questions. However, if we can help you further, don't hesitate to let us know. Don Ricardo |
