Hi, the little van has doors on both sides , I'll get some pics into P/bucket that show a bit more detail and post them up in the next few days. Here is one when the resto was nearly finished .....
...and it's not imported , most of the early Teardrops were homebuilt like this one is, here's a pre rebuild pic....
...and partly dismantled.....
...the same kitchen area during the build ,pre painting....
....and the day we brought it home, posed behind a mate's Morris J.....
...the colours of which inspired the finish on the teardrop......cheers, Col.

Yes please for more. I too have more, but not until January. A further question: your teardrop has a right-hand door. Is that because it has left and right? One of the other photos posted has that feature. Was it imported?

Having lived through a pandemic I now understand all the painting of fat people on couches!

I am thinking of a teardrop van to replace the tent eventually. As there will normally be 2 people in it I thought a door each side would make it easier if one of us needed to go for a walk. If there was only one door odds on it will be the one on the side without the door that would need the walk!

I reckon the teardrop with a bed and a kitchen is just about all you need for a quick camp! Perfect!
