The oldest vehicle I know of in our family was Great Grandfather's 18 bullock bullock wagon My Grandfather did the 30 mile mail run from Adelong to Yaven Creek in a Model T Ford, with 20 odd gates each way it would have been a days work. The run is longer now and the round trip is done in around 4 hours. Grandfather also ownd a Summit, there is a restored one at the Birdwood Mill Museum, I'll try and find a copy of the book on the restoration to scan a picture.
