It's certainly distinctive, someone should recognise it !!

What's he/she like ?
There's a few accessories been fitted, even the van back has A/C Very Happy Very Happy .

HI scott it doesnt seem to bad it has saas seats which i cant fit into, sports wheel ,mags bull bar with spotties ,fan forced air to the back of course motor seems ok oil leaks everywhere,rust in both sides in the floor panels, where they flatten out and turn down, but i will get a lot of enjoyment out of tinkering around with it.
regards bo. Red Van

I would have thought you'd have a positive response to your history question by now Eye Rolls .

Did the previous owner give you any indication of how long he'd had it or where it had been ?
It seems strange that a Morry in those colours would be unknown to the Qlders on here.

Maybe try sending a couple of pictures to the local SEQ Morry clubs to see their response.

I have seen that one around SEQld a couple of times about two years ago. Toowoomba and Ormiston Swaps I think. Never spoke to the owner.

Hi Bo,
I live in the Redlands and used to see this van semi regularly in the area. All I know is the guy used to occasionaly come and sell stuff at the Redland Bay Pub Markets and he had two german sheppard Dogs, (Big Ones). I know another bloke who may now more info. I'll try to remember to ask him next time I see him, as a while back I told him of the van and he said he knew the Guy.
