A couple of old school show vans, that haven't been seen in years, were there last year.
"Chairman of the board" a Mercedes fronted holden van
"Alleycat" a VERY well known that had a V12 Jag motor in it

I remember Alley Cat, it was a HJ Sandman built by John Strachan from memory in the late 70's. Cool murals but I didn't particularly like what he did with the dash. Pretty sure I have the Van Wheels magazine it was featured in, had a Jag rear end along with the Jag engine.

That's correct. It also had a Meteor front on it, but now has a Statesman front.

I remember reading about it when I bought the mag and discussing how we thought he was mad spending $25000 on it, at the time that was more than 3 times the cost of a new HZ Sandman.....

And here we all are undoing it all, and spending more than that do it....
