Introducing the Cars That Made Australia podcast, with Tim 'Rosso' Ross.

If you love a good Origin story — whether it’s footy or cars — this one’s for you. With the NRL season wrapped up and Bathurst just around the corner, it’s time for an oh-so-70s Australian Icon — Panel Vans!

This episode looks at the rise of the Panel Van, a car that never raced at Bathurst but definitely got you there — and gave you a place to crash after a few too many Beam cans. From surfers to petrolheads, these vans became the ultimate custom lifestyle vehicle, a freedom machine upholstered in brown crushed velvet.
