    I had earmarked this, but not responded. There are quite a few here in SEQ who could make the trip accross to meet up in Alice. I will definately have my finger out to have a working series 1 and a support vehicle.

    I'd love to make the trip from Darwin. It shouldn't be a hassle.

    There's a bloke up the road here that did Adelaide - Perth on a regular basis in an 80" to visit rellies. Kids & camping gear in the back & off they'd go.

    This was back in the 50/60s when the WW2 built road was as rough as a dog's guts. He's still got it & he bought a S1 hardtop with the hinged door from me a few years ago.

    Apx 2,800 km each way.

    I don't have a S1, but I do know a bit about them, and could be interested in tagging along in support, probably in the S2a if there is anyone thinking of coming from this general direction and feels they need support.

    Trip....Perth to Alice Springs

    I note that the Land Rover Club of the ACT are sponsering a trip around corner country from 31 May 2010 for heritage Land Rovers. See:

    OUTBACK LAND ROVER HERITAGE DRIVE 2010

    Now there is a trip for you, do the Corner Country, then nip across the Simpson, over to Alice and catch up with guys from Perth and then off home to the various loctions!!

    Who's in?

    But still! hehehe man that's a long time. You could fly to Tibet, trek to the basecamp of Mount Everest, aclimatise, climb the north ridge seige style, nice and slow, reach the summit, return to base camp, trek out from the mountain ranges and be back on a plane to to perth in 6-8 weeks

    I'm sure a lot of the people who would otherwise be keen for this trip won't be able to make it because of work.

    Looks like fun toad - I sent them an email and they will be advising more soon.
    Aiming for about 50 series vehicles Now that'd be an impressive sight!
    (Yeah I know - I didn't make it to Cooma )
