Hi there.. I know your van.
You may find that it is older than you think.
It is more likely to be late 60s.
Murrumba Star were built at Caboolture in Qld and were very revolutionery in their day. They also made the same unit without wheels to fit in the back of a ute.
The type you have was on display at the
Brisbane show on the back of a mini. Don't know how it would have pulled it though.
Post some pictures.. love to see it.
Cheeers
