Goodonya Ian.

Love the pics and the way youve presented the whole tour. Looks like you had a great time. Reminds me of the trip we did in my HQ sandy copy all over Vic a few years back before kids.. Unfortunately the mrs accidentaly deleted all the photos...

Think we'll have to get back to tassie again too one of these days. You should make travel brochures!!

Thanks for sharing all the info.

I thought so too. I had to ask to get that amount of info, bit strange really.

all the dealings that ive had with pedders (from a supply and fit side of things) have been less than memorable... however their rear commy ute springs are better than lovells!

Well done Ian & Jo!!
Looks like you had a great time, Karen and I did a similar trip in a new VR commodore ute before the kids came along years ago and loved every minute of Tassie and loved the driving experiance. I remember that nearly every second car out in the country would give you a wave.
Doing that trip in a sandman will certainly be going on the bucket list.
great job of recording the trip for all to enjoy. Great stuff.

cheers Rob.
