racing and a parade of cars and vans
around the circuit.
Our van draws a lot attention
wherever it goes and looks great behind
the 62 Pontiac Laurentian that we have
had for twelve years. We have found the
van very comfy and cozy to stay in and
love using it. Whenever we go away with
friends they enjoy sitting in it with us.
We have kept in touch with the
original owners and have sent them
photos of the upgrades. Stuart and Nancy
were very happy with the outcome and
pleased to see it appreciated. Stuart
has since sent us photos of his journeys
and some history of the van. The photos
behind the Vanguard Ute are from their
honeymoon in 1959.
I enjoyed restoring our van and
colour coordinating it with the Pontiac
so much that we have since purchased a
1969 13ft Franklin with full annex to do
up in 60’s retro era. I’ll colour coordinate
and tow it behind our HJ Holden. It’s
going to be hard to know which one to
take away!”
