Trying to find a pic

Some time ago on here there was a photo of the front of a Highwayman. It was a close up of the grill which was of the older design with the three bars over the smaller mesh. I think it was a two tone van in light green or tan and cream. It was a great pic of how the grill goes together and would be really useful for the guy who is making up my new grill to see how it should look. Of course if you know of another photo that shows the same thing that would be cool...
Finding one of those grills here in good nick is a pipe dream:(

CHeers

Well...alright then, maybe just a little...

I don't know if the following link on vintagecaravans forum may have been the link or not. A few photos of a couple of Series 2 vans appear on there (Including among them some Highwaymans / Highwaymen).

An old film clip about Bluebird Caravans in Parkstone, Dorset and the Bluebird Caravans owner at the time, William Knott.

Could this also be at the later (and same) address listed on the back of the Commer (Highwayman, Wanderer, and Motorhome) brochures for Caravans International - Motorised, 500 Ringwood Road, Parkstone. Poole, Dorset in the UK [?]
