Hi Kyliek,

Welcome to the forum and thanks for telling us about your new caravan.

Based on Twocutekelpies’ Viscount serial number register, ‘A2445’ indicates a 1968 Viscount Duralvan. That ID matches up with the ‘racetrack’ flashes on the sides of the van, and the wrap around front and rear windows.

You mentioned ‘Duralvan ambassador’ in your post. The Duralvan was Viscount’s top model, whereas the Ambassador was the mid range model. (The Valiant was the ‘economy’ model.) So your van won’t be both a Duralvan and an Ambassador. The Duralvan and Ambassador were basically the same shape, but the Ambassador didn’t normally have the wrap around windows. The wrap around windows were an option for the Ambassador at some points, but the serial numbers for the Duralvan and Ambassador were different. The serial number tells us that your van is a Duralvan.

Hope that helps?
