Hi myvan
Cant really help with any info other than I can remember these vans from the 1970's. May be one of the members can shed a bit more light on these vans.

Cheers.
Richard.

Hello Richard
I was told about this caravan from a dealer who said he had not seen one at all.

He said it was 1969 with wrap around windows. Was hoping to look today but may have to look tomm.

Cheers

Hello
I took these photos today of Viscount caravans and have to confirm with the dealer if the Waldorf is the one with pink curtains.

I believe the one next to it is the supreme

A 1970 brochure of the Viscount and the Viscount Ambassador Range.

The interesting thing about this brochure is the 16' Viscount with a fibreglass front and rear panel and the roof looks as though its fibreglass as well, all with an aluminium frame.

I seem to recall one of these vans was on ebay a while back so Ill go through the archive to see what I can find.

Well it has taken me a couple of days but I have found the photos of the Fibreglass fronted Viscount that was on ebay this year. It looks to be in reasonably good condition with a new paint job on the outside.
