    Brady, apart from your dad being a total spunk, and wearing Addidas Rhomes (shoes) that van is Malchite Green am pretty sure, and when we have done ours it will look very very similar to that, with all the caprice gear on it...I know it isn't his and the only reason I am sure it isn't is that we don't have the little bubble windows in the rear, it is completely windowless...I will send a pic when ours is done, I am sure he will love to see a similar van about....
    Cheers J

    Well after some research on this forum and oldholden.com i have now found out the colour of the van (going off pictures as no i.d info) .. it is Metallic Jade Green or (British Racing Green)
    http://gallery.oldholden.com/Mr_Jone...HX/Jade+Green/
    Has anyone got any pictures of this colour on a van??
    Now the hard part is choosing between Barbados Green and Jade green for my van as i'm planning to do it the same as dads was.. got plenty of time to decide

    Cheers Brady

    Hmm, Jade Green Met on a Windowless HQ Van you wouldn't see many replicas HQ vans getting around in Jade Green would be very unique
