1964 Vintage Sunliner Caravan
$30,000
Fully restored 13ft Sunliner. According to the drawbar it is a 1964 but the rego papers say 1960 model.
Tare 780kg
GVM 1200kg
ACT rego until 14 March 2024
The van is located in Canberra and inspections are welcome. I can send more photos/videos on request.
This was originally just a shell and has been beautifully restored and has new gel coating. It was to be our long-term van but due to chronic injury we are no longer able to use her.
You are unlikely to find another van like this ever. We are very heartbroken that we have to part with her. The van is in immaculate condition mechanically, as well as functionally and aesthetically. It is ready to be hooked up and towed on its next adventure.
All of the important mechanical stuff is new (suspension, wheels, chassis etc). Electric brakes and light truck tyres have also been added. A vintage bar is on the back and it is wired (standard 7 pin) to add a bike rack with light if desired. Inside there is insulation throughout the caravan with all the wood and chrome cabinetry and details custom built.
All cooking, plumbing and gas has been removed for inside. The gas cylinder on the front is used to connect to an outdoor Webber barbecue. The caravan very comfortably had a family of 3 living in it for a week without feeling cramped. The van was totally rewired and has a deep cycle lithium battery. All the lights are 12V and can be independently controlled by a remote.
The original water tank has been removed (but will be included in the sale). The cap was kept in place to maintain the overall look of the van, but when you remove the cap there is a 12V plug allowing you to plug in your car fridge or fan or outdoor appliances and run them off the caravan battery.
Caravan double bed at the back and the dining table easily turns into a king single. All dinette cushions were custom made to fit perfectly with high quality fabric that is apparently almost indestructible.
The skylight hatch was gel coated over, but the shape was maintained, and can be cut out again if you would like it (original hatch cover included in the sale). But given there is no cooking appliances in the van and it is so well insulated, there wasn't a need for it for airflow. The door has Crimsafe mesh on it. All of the windows are original (with original fittings) but with new glass and the four side windows have removable fly screens.
The van was inspected and insured by Shannons for 52k. I realise I will not get this price in the sale, but we had no intention of ever having to sell the van so no expense was spared on the quality of the restoration.
The van is unlikely to appeal to a Sunliner purist that love everything original. However, as the van had no internals, it was an opportunity to make a light weight family van, which was mechanically modern and configure the internals to suit the way that we caravan (i.e. cooking outdoors, lots of storage but minimal cabinets and needing it insulated for all seasons).
