Thread: Cape York - a different way

I went up there is very early 80's. I passed bunch of blokes on the track driving a Datsun 1600. They just dragged it over, pushed it over, tipped it over and winched it over what ever was in the way. Sometimes they all sat in and drove it as well.

My father had a good story about being flooded into a shearing shed with no beer. Cocky's 60 cruiser bogged, as was dads xt with a jaguar 5 speed.
two days latter a shearers wife turned up in a beetle, which ploughed over the mud on it,s flat bottom, with beer and toilet paper for everyone.
