Pink

My Daughter sent me this link to check out but my blistering 33.6 connection out here in the sticks is too slow to do anything with it, maybe somebody with broadband could check it out for me.

Hi Dave, the pink caravan is the one on permanent display in the National Museum of Australia, in Canberra. Somewhere hidden amongst the hundreds of posts on this forum is further information about it. But probably quicker to drive to Canberra than go searching for the thread
(but as soon as I say that, someone will come up with the link... )

cheers,
Al.

Hi Dave,

Belinda posted some photos of the pink Propert at the National Museum under Reply # 12 at the following thread:

It's been beautifully restored, although I'm not sure how original the pink paint is. It's interesting that it has a single skin (ie it is unlined), and from memory has aluminium walls although it looks like a bondy. Somebody will correct me if I am leading you astray. It is about 5 years since I checked the van out at the museum.

Must say the link your daughter passed on to you is pretty neat. Sorry - that's not much comfort for you, I know...
