Hi all, I'm a new poster but have been watching this forum for a while with great interest. I was just wondering if anyone knows what this van is, or at least started out as, I think it has had some major mods to the chassis and possibly a new roof as well, but now I have taken it on as a project...... and oh boy I'm going to have my work cut out I know that much. Any insight would be appreciated as there are absolutely no info available from previous owners, and I would like to go in the right direction for parts and era, etc. It has 3way fridge, twin gas cooker and sink opposite the door and pull out bed ends if that helps, the rest is gutted. Thanks in advance! Attachments:![](//storage.proboards.com/2483213/thumbnailer/1ddEatAOKwti7PKCowDr.jpg)

Hi Ripken, Looks to me like a sun camper 6 made by sun wagon. The roof would have been fibreglass originally,with a dinette across the back and a split kitchen at the front,and very low cupboards. Also looks like a new A frame has been put on,but I could be wrong! Built in about 1970 plus or minus a year. Cheers Hughdeani

Thanks hughdeani, yes I think the whole chassis has been tampered with and that top must weigh in at about 80-90kg at the moment(all steel tube and timber), it's incredibly heavy. I reckon I will be redoing that in Aluminium and fibreglass for sure! I might keep a log and post some pics along the way when I get the chance. Cheers.
