grt 11 Report post Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) Was in Launceston in early March, before the world went mad, and visited this lovely little vintage car museum. Thought I'd share a few highlights for those who haven't been: Enjoy!

32coupe 20 Report post Posted April 7, 2020 What day were you there? I was there on March 20th, and fell in love with the Lotus in the office. We also found another museum in Wynyard, well worth the visit. Cheers Andrew Quote A man without a woman is like a neck without a pain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Andrew, My wife and I were in Launceston from 28th Feb to 11th Mar. We did the 6 day Overland Trek from Cradle Mt to Lake St Clair, with full packs (over 20Kg). Bloody hardest thing I've ever done, but a fantastic experience, and then had a few days downtime before flying back. Wandered around Launceston a few times, dropped in to the Car Museum and the art gallery, had a massage, walked the gorge, did a winery tour and a few other things. Lovely town, some magnificent wine and food, definitely heading back there again. Quote Graeme ~~~~~~ (Life is like a sewer....................What you get out of it depends on what you put into it!)

bov 11 Report post Posted April 11, 2020 Very nice pictures, and creative use of the mirror... Who can identify the red / orange sports car next to the blue / white GT40? A police car in a desirable car museum? Quote Cheers, Tony. There's only two questions: 1. What direction do you go 2. What's the Lap Record? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grt 11 Report post Posted April 12, 2020 Who can identify the red / orange sports car next to the blue / white GT40? Yeah, sorry, I didn't get the name plate in the frame unfortunately, as I did with many of the others, and I simply can't remember the make or model. I'm hoping someone will recognise it.

mtpanorama 3 Report post Posted April 13, 2020 It looks a bit like that sports car/kit car that Dick Johnson ran in some Targa races in the 2000's????

grt 11 Report post Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) Hi All, I just emailed the museum, who then pointed me to their Facebook page, which happens to feature that car on a post from yesterday. The car is a 2015 SUPERLITE SL-C COUPE https://www.facebook.com/namtnews/?ref=br_rs I heartily recommend you visit the Facebook site, as well as the museum itself, as their photos are far more drool worthy than mine.
