Hi everyone, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
We have many couples heading down under in September of 2016, so now is a great time to think very hard about a short flight from LA into Melbourne ( direct flight ) to come down and join us.
We have only one more couple allocated space for our US brothers and sisters.
If you'd like to come down and participate please contact either Joss and Susan Sanderson in Arizona or the Rally Director ( me )on the email addresses below.
{ note remove the ** from the email addresses}.

Susan and Joss - az_tchr**@yahoo.com
David Dare - dandrdare**@bigpond.com

Our entry list is growing daily and to-date we are very pleased to be able to bring you this invitation to join us in the fall of 2016 (September 24 - October 02 -2016)

Kindest regards
David Dare
Rally Director.

Dave, these rallies a tri-ennial. The organising state has often done a year's planning ahead of the current event so they can make a presentation at the current one, so that make 4 years or so in the planning for the next.

If you sign up now, you will reap the benefit of a low AU$, currently around US 81c.

Allan from down under.

Very tempting. Beautiful countryside in the video David made. As in so many things...$$$ is an issue.

What do you mean "only have space for one more ... " Oz is as big as the U.S. and has far fewer T's. Seems to me every
last T owner on earth could show up and there would still be no shortage of space ! :-)

David, does that opening include a T for me and my wife to ride in.
I am not about to send a car down under and than have to drive on the wrong side of the road.

The Von Nordheim's are going! Sounds like it will be a great rally (Tour). What a great way to make new friends in Australia and see some of their beautiful country side. Come on some one....sign up and have some fun. You do not need to bring a car.....just bring extra model T parts and be willing to get under in case of a break down. Smile! Come join the fun.

I have been busy listening to Country singer Slim Dusty songs. Have a disk and am starting to develop voice to fit in down under. Also like Dur

Thank you Allan for those great additional words.
Yes the value right now is better than ever, the prospects of the dollar staying at 80 - 81 cents for the next twelve months are any bodies guess.
space for one more - couple - or two singles if that makes a little more sense.
Les and Barbara how are you both.
Giving you a T is a little bit more tricky, getting you a ride for the week is a whole lot easier. You and your driver can discuss the driving at your leisure.
Australia is a great place to come on down and stay a while, plenty to see, plenty to do.
email Joss Sanderson and/or have a chat with him, he is our North American coordinator.

To all our US based entrants, we cant wait to see you.
Merry Christmas and a happy and safe new year.
David Dare and the whole 2016 Rally Committee.

David,

We are doing good....very busy running in all directions. We have moved my 97 year old dad to a care giver's home. Now cleaning out 60 years of stuff from the home that was collected over all those years. Between the house, cars, storage buildings, parts and machine tools.....it may take a year or more to get it all done. Mom and Dad kept everything! It's a living history going thru it all. May not be finished in time for the 2016 Rally.....Smile!

The reason there was only room for one more couple is the rally committee wants to be able to provide rides and driving experiences for everyone who comes. One does not need to spend any $$ to bring a Model T. The difficulty is in finding enough Ts. Past tours have only had one or two couples in recent years. That was easy.

Since the other people posted that slot has filled and there are now 12 couples signed up to go to Australia in 2016.

With many driving roadsters getting enough cars arranged is a challenge. Thus the limit to make sure everyone can have a ride organized each day and hopefully a drive for one or more days too.

There is a waiting list. If anyone is interested in participating please contact either David Dare in Australia or Joss Sanderson in Tucson for additional information on how you might be able to attend what should be a wonderful rally.
