OASIS CARAVANS
On 1 June 2010, Franklin1 posted:
At the recent Vintage Nationals in Mildura, a couple (non-members) attended in a Franklin Freeway that had been "rebadged" as an Oasis. I was able to 'get up close and personal' with this van, and made the following discoveries...
1. The Oasis name related to a caravan sales yard in Clovelly Park, S.A.
2. The chassis number on this van was 822-5, which means that Franklin were using the xxxx-x chassis numbering system a year earlier than previously known. This van is a 1965 model...
cheers,
Al.
