Brings back some memories of my apprenticeship,cleaning & polishing of the sunliner hire fleet. My 1st boss used to make these vans in a factory
at Forster and they could be towed by the mighty 36hp beetle. We used to take them to the shows and carnivals for the ride operators to live in .But
first I had to clean the "buggers"and then again when they were returned.I was glad when he finally sold the fleet and I went back to mechanical and
panel work.i am not sure how many he made but over the last few years I have seen a lot of them back on the road.
