It was a HZ factory 308 T400 GTS dash with that special life in the tropics destruction of metallic paint finish(maybe Sandman ???)

I lived in Darwin then and played AFL, sometimes against Jabiru on their rocky oval. It seems we've been to the same spots over the years

Wow, that Crocodile Motel!

My mum worked there in the late 90's, and I might be just about to hire a chef who is working there now! funny how places and people tend to crop up together!

The Van looks good there, and your'e right about the weather up there destroying that style of paint, so many cars running around with that look.

Seems like you got to travel about a bit in your van, did you have any favourite spots?
