    I think the top one was at old Adaminaby during the last drought period when the town popped out of the dam.

    The door handles would probably be OK.

    And the "sunroof" looks almost new!

    That yellow one's a shame, looked like a nice van caught in the wrong place at the wrong time (high tide!)
