The Puce Goose takes flight
Following our last rally in South America, the Goose has returned very late from Lima Peru. The Morgan arrived back on Thursday 9 March following a thorough AQIS ( quarantine ) ordered wash down. We were then left with 10 days to carry out repairs and a minor rebuild of suspension before it flies to Japan with us on Tuesday 21 March.
In relation to the re build, we were ably assisted by the following:
Mike Devine
Noel Macwhirter
Jon Bate
Automotive Sunroof and Trim
Rod Smith
We also need to thank Marlene Ketjen and Chris Van Wyk of Morgan Cars Australia who organised various parts for us at our email request whist we were still competing in South America.
The late return meant we missed the opportunity to ship it my sea, that cut off date being 24 February.
Luckily, fellow Morgan owner Lyle Honess of Jetta Express, www.jetta.com.au has greatly assisted along with our own national carrier Qantas and the Puce Goose is taking to the air along with us to arrive at Narita airport on Tuesday 21 March.
That leaves us time to do our private travel which we have organised before the rally.
