Hi Lynda, I managed to find most of the collection at the Sunday Markets around the Perth area, some I have found at Garage Sales,
A very few have come from shops, while others have come attached to magazines, I'll chase them when-ever they are advertised on GUMTREE , but they are usually over priced on there.
My favourites are the Vintage Models like this one..........

I presume that is a model you have there, very good if it is, I have been trying to collect model caravans for some time but, It's surprising how few there are around, I think my total now is only about 6, It's a bit like trying to find Franklyn Mint models, very rare and can be pretty expensive if they do come up on the Market.

hi, I bought this from a toy shop in Gladstone. Tank Street if I recall correctly. They also have a shop at Tannum Sands. I have looked everywhere for model caravans and you are right, they are rare. Wanted a matchbox one and everyone who collects them told me every time you go to the shops check the packets of five. they are in them but so far I have not found one. cheers. rocket.
