Two Honey Beige FB Vans. One I still have, the other BQZ-680 I picked up while driving through Newcastle in 1988. It was delivering Dry Cleaning! I can't seem to find the pic with the old sign writting on it. Can't remember who I sold it to.

EK Van Dark Blue I picked up from Mittagong in 1989. 202, five speed. Like so many, it's gone!

I don't remember this one, it was at a time when I had seven Panel Vans :)

Sold this one as is as I ran out of space, it came from Mt Druitt.

Insane collection !!!

Do you have any pics for the colour of Katherine Biege ? Seems to be the original colour of my recent purchase. I love the look of your honey beiges vans , the painted tail light frames look like a must have !!

Last time I saw the trailer it wasn't far off from where your FB215 was...

There's an old story round the club that Kookaburra models used your van for measurements for their EK van model - any truth to the rumour, and which one was it....?

Nice collection of vans and pics Steve. Great to see the old photos.

The shots of your promotional vans bought back memories from long ago. Was your business on Parramatta Rd Annandale? My grandmother used to live in Annandale and I rememeber your vans, but haven't been to the area much now since she passed away.

Thanks Steve FB Van & Rat Box, as Mick said I am still here, time to get a new Yellow Panel Van sign I think. The old sign is looking pretty daggy.
