Agree the caravan looks home made, hats off to the builder. Unusual for such a small van to be twin axle! This early in design they were still learning of course. My own old van is a 1930 Eccles 'cottage on wheels' 
Could you post a pic of it please? Love old stuff like that!

That's mine! I'm looking to have a change this summer. Owned my little Eccles for six year or so now, was thinking about a 1963 Morris j2 paralian caravanette, but that is over priced IMHO at the moment. On the other hand perhaps a lightweight modern caravan that I can use at steam rallies. Not sure at all.

Thank you.
Are you planning to put your bow top onto a car drawn chassis or load it onto a trailer for transporting? I love the bow tops especially when fitted out with little pot belly stoves and rear mounted bed bunks. Post up some pic's I'm sure I won't be the only person with an interest.

Would you mind me asking how much you think a J2 Paralian should be, as I've found one that might be for sale, and i've no idea how to value it!

The J2 that I fancy is at £17950, it is very nice order by look of it, it was for sale last year by its then private sale owner. Enquirerd but was undecided at the time, it's now for sale through a dealership.
As with all things condition is key to price and the vintage camper van / caravan is a niche market.
Good luck with whatever you purchase.
