Bushtracker Construction

 After paying our deposit in October 2020 and all the problems associated with the pandemic, we expected our new van to be ready in early September 2021.

Our first significant instalment was paid on the 7th of September, 2021. This first payment is for the completion of the chassis and frame. It's now the first week of November, and we have just been asked for the close-in payment.

The great news is that our van will be ready for pickup on the 7th of December. Unfortunately, the QLD border will be closed until the 17th of December, so we've decided to have our van trucked to the Bushtracker agent ABCO Caravan Services here in Coffs Harbour. 

We've already received a quote from Straightshot Transport, and at $1474, we think it's excellent value and are currently organising through them to liaise with Bushtracker regarding delivery.

  1. Very nice, Ross. Provided everything returns to normal we hope to be in QLD next winter and will get those spare wheel cages fitted.

    1. Thanks Stephen...those spare wheel cages are a very clever idea and perfect for managing tyres as we get older.
