Will.. It could be a New Zealand Zephyr. They were originally built in Dunedin in the 40's and later built by Modern Caravans. A picture would help but early Zephyrs had a fiberglass roof and later models had a distinctive forward leaning look. Telltale NZ construction details can be couplings and jockey wheels that look different to Australian ones. Possibly a lipped C channel drawbar and different looking suspension. See the post I put in the thread about the NZ caravan book vintagecaravans.proboards30.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1131950302
