A drive around the block

[RUNNERBUN]

OK, here in Australia when we say we're going for a drive around the block we are not referring to your normal block in the residential suburbs. What I'm referring to is the big block. "Yes, the big block called Australia" Starting at Mackay on the North-East coast of Queensland we will travell south and then west across the Nullabor Plains to the west coast of West Australia to attend the 2014 National Meet which will be held at Busselton in west Australia.
Following the Meet we will continue in a clock-wise direction thru the Northern Territory and back to our home town of Mackay. I estimate we will cover a distance of approx. 15,000 km (9,300 Miles). This will be the second time to West Australia for my 28 Pheaton. The previous trip was a distance of 13,500 km.
Just a little info on the car, it is an early 28 Pheaton running a stock Model B motor (C on the Head) with a counter balanced crankshaft, B carb, B distributor converted to electronic ignition, 3.54 ratio Crown & Pinion and a Mitchell Sinchro transmission.
Joining me will be my wife, my brother and his wife also driving an early 28 stock Pheaton, and dare I mention another companion who will be driving a 1935 Chevrolet pick-up coming along for the drive. All three cars will be towing camper trailers. We plan to drive on average 200 miles per day with every 4th day off as a rest day.
I estimate that we will be on the road for approx. two months. I will endeavour to post updates as we get around.
We leave Wednesday Aug 27th.
Now that I have told the world what I'm doing I hope and pray that we get all the way around.
Wish us luck!
