Hi Big kel
Is that rain i see in good old FNQ??

Great pix mate. Is that a biscayne??

15 mins from home ... always good if the neighbours are partying too loud.. ya can always walk home to a quiet bedroom.

You guys are gunna have to hook up with long time forum members "scootman". he is a local up your way . built his own van called "Princess Helen".
Apparently vintage vanners are a bit thin on the ground up your way and i am sure any chance to get away on a trip with you guys will be jumped on by Scoot.

Love the vans and the towcars......Good stuff..

Reddo.. worked at the Great Northern Pub.. Grafton st , Cairns for 12 months back in 1982.

I THINK THE VAN IS A 1970 VALIANT, ( WITH 1 L OR 2 NOT SURE.) CAR IS A 58 CHEV BISCAYNE 6 CYL 3 SPEED MANUAL, PULLED OUT OF A BARN IN ATHERTON, ORIGINAL COND EXCEPT FOR THE MAGS. THE RED & WHITE 58 WAS ALSO MINE UNTIL A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. THE 52 UTE IS BRUCENAN,S ( he just recently put the photos in kurramine beach 07 in runs & events) kelqq243tr
