Default My experience with Half-Safe.

In 1999, I had the great experience of being allowed by Bob Dimer to drive Half-Safe around Ball Park Caravan Park. Thank you Bob, not too many people have driven a vehicle which has circumnavigated the world mostly under its own steam.

Here are the photos taken that day 13th March 1999.

The line up with Half-Safe as no.1. Have a look at no.2. That is the Wilsons honey-moon vehicle.

Check out the driving position and compare the drivers seat position with the previous photo. That is right, right back at the last of the side windows.

Taken through the rear hatch. It's a long way to the front.
