A rare opportunity!!
This caravan is an unfinished restoration that when completed has the potential of being a thing of great beauty. A Grand design in a small space
This is a very Rare (only one in NZ) UK caravan
Burlingham Sandringham 1956
A similar model resides in the Lakeland Museum in the UK & around 5 others are known of ,in the UK, that have been restored
Thousands spent on this van already , but due to a change in circumstances we have no time to finish
The caravan has been completely gutted and all it's internals have been stripped, polished, rechromed and rejuvenated.
Some parts are in bits, like the oven and one of the gas heaters to be polished, chromed etc All seem to be there but it will take some time & patience of the purchaser to reassemble.
All the wood cabinetry is stripped ready for oiling or staining (beautiful wood grain, , unsure of what sort) but needs to be reinstated.
We have hundreds of photos available that may be of some help
Has 2 exterior doors.
A small toilet room with unique toilet & copper wash bottles
Copper sink & alloy benchs with wooden hinged top
4 berth (no squabs, curtains )
Fully stripped down exterior ready for paint
Brass (polished) windows with leadlights, all have been restored but all need to be refitted.
Curved tin roof ( some models had a canvas layer over the tin
Beautiful fittings, lights, vents heaters, brass latches & catches, brass hinges, all been re polished, chromed etc (literally thousands spent on this alone)
All alloy benchs etc have been restored.
Wooden floor boards
This will be no simple put back together but with a bit of hard work will result in a very beautiful van.
