Trans Tasman Packard Car Rally

The Packard Car Club of Australia has recently finished their 12 day rally of Tasmania and were lucky enough to be joined by three vary rare Packard’s from New Zealand. The cars were shipped out a week prior to the start of the tour and I’m pleased to say the process of getting them through customs and quarantine was seamless. Much of this was due to good research and the help of our local shipping agents – Total Care Logistics.

All participants had a wonderful time and the general consensus was that its been one of the best rally’s to date. This was due, in a large part, the organisational skills of Austrips. Many comments were made about how nice it was “not having to worry about organising anything” All the participants had to do was follow the detailed drivers notes and have fun!
