Beechworth RAC fb

Post by Blackdog »

Hi All.
First saw this van 20 years ago when visiting the area. A few scratches and bruises but it’s still going!
Anyone know the story on this? It seems to have been used as part of the road side assistance fleet for the local provider for some time. I assume he would have a back up ek for when the fb needed rescuing.......

Also an old ej van. And this truck.

My great uncle drove similar NRMA vans around Goulburn way after returning from the war.

Nice one JP. I assume you headed east to catch up with the family. Is that truck what we call a Chev maple leaf?
