Looking for a BMC bus/motorhome


Hi everyone , I'm a Coffs Harbour based mini enthusiast who is trying to locate the bus shown below for a magazine article . I believe the bus was one of two bought to Australia in the mid 1960's and used as a travelling mobile classroom for BMC mechanics and apprentices . Later one of the buses was also used by Evan Green (BMC and then BLMC competition department in Australia) as a sponsor's and driver's lounge when the Leyland young lion's team was racing mini's at circuits .

The photo below was taken somewhere around the Newcastle area around the year 2000 by the neighbour of the owner , the owner packed up and set off on an Australian trip and I've run out of leads to locate it . As far as I know it is still using the Victorian number plates RGS425 (plates are listed as still in use/not availible according to the vicplates website so I'm hoping they're still on the bus) . Any help with finding the bus and it's owners will be greatly appreciated .
