The standard sundowner was like the picture below, just in plain colors yellow, light blue and white with a strip down the side
Image
Only the drivers side had the bay window i pulled a mold off of it and put it
in the passengers side.
Image
The small round windows are standard.
Standard mark II grill not the one that i made.
No flares or spoiler or wing on the back
They were imported from Germany i was told and converted from v4 to 6cyl 250 x flow


The cobra according to the ford fanatics i know was not a production car/van just a one of custom but i think a few others were modeled along the same idea

i dunno about the round window being a sundowner option

My van is a genuine sundowner having a 3 for the 5th didgit in the model prefix verifies this i also have ford verification that its a sundowner

the sundowner was available in the following colours

Brown Satin met

Blue Steel met

Midnight Blue met

Emerald Green met (like mine)

Sno White

Raw Orange

Pine N Lime

Fireglow

Beige Blush

The stripe was available in only two tone green/lime

One Transit's van looks more like a Wolfrace custom van.

As One wrote he's told his Transit is from Germany, it could be a "Clubmobil" which has the small round windows as standard feature, also the large side windows! But never heard they were officially exported to Australia! :? But it looks more like a typical 70s/80s custom with those flares, sunraysia wheels, etc.! 8)
