Vanning Collectables

I can't think of another thread devoted to the subject of vanning collectables, so i thought I'd kick it off with the latest offering from TRAX http://www.topgear.com.au/product.php?product_id=490
orange HZ Sandman - (not many left).

Also keep an eye out for hot wheels colour changer Dodge custom vans... (2 types, blue/flames or green/camoflage)


Okay so lets share our favourite collectables...
below are a few of mine.


The holy grail (van wheels/SM01 aug-sep 81)...

I've actually have purchased a fair few more since I took the pics (full set of CV&T plus a box of 90s SM featuring Motivator et al etc)


And one of my recent additions... Little Van Goes

Lastly one i don't own.(unfortunately)

I'm here Marion,

been wait for you to et started James.

haven't seen M&M's but it would scare me to think about what they have.

i couldn't not get these....

been lookin for those hotwheels vans but cant find them yet

hey james i found some more blue ones at DJ's today... the colour changers are bigger packs and about 7 bucks. i have a couple spare if you want to swap something...

below are some i found in my local area over the past year or so... almost feel sorry for a bunch of kids on my side of town that are going to grow up without having little vans to play with. little blighters would probly just wreck them anyway,

thanks soundman, i will have a look around during the week , otherwise i will get back to you, cheers

here are "some" of my collectables

Hi James,

Where did you get the clay model done if possible can you get one done for me.

Regards

Paul

the guy who done that was at the van nats this year, i will dig out his contatcts details for you Paul, he will need many photos of your van
and if i'm right he charges about $160.00 plus post. also they are clay they are more like a light weight cement

sandman polo and tshirt tin


Surfer dudes in their van from the USA

HE IS VERY TALENTED, ALL DONE FROM PHOTOS

heh sweet... love the shelves of little Vans...

those Bad-Co. and Menace are indeed really impressive.

Not vanning related but thought people might be interested. Just came back from Kmart and they have some gift tins with shortbread in them with pictures on the front. Among the pictures available were an HQ SS 4 door in green and a GT Falcon. The pictures are slightly raised. The tins are about 30cm x 25cm and are only $10. Plus you get to eat the cookies. Mmmmm Cookies.

James seeing your shelves was like looking at something completely normal.... strangely comforting

Mint condition:

Nice brochure..

a few years back I heard that the Mambo Van was for sale... Anyone know if this is true? i had heard ballpark $13k but this made it seem somewhat unbelievable


Nice Re-build job on those Mugs BTW James.

If thats the case that is...

I finally worked out how to do this.
Gold FJ Van Lapel Pin.

Mandy's Van model we got it from the same bloke.
