The big trip to Central Australia is now over. The reason for the trip was to commemorate
the cease of production of the International Scout twenty five years ago and Alice Springs
was chosen because of its central position from anywhere within Australia. There are
also unique scenic and historic attractions both natural and man-made in this area.

Because of the contribution International Harvester has made to the development of the
country, the National Transport Hall of Fame extended an invitation to us to visit their
display.

We gratefully accepted this invitation and decided between the Clubs that it would be
appropriate to leave a memento of this occasion. It was decided to create a collage
depicting the history of the International Scout. Ken & Jeanette Sellars took on the
responsibility of collecting information from various sources and arranging it for
presentation. Ron and June Thomas volunteered to put together a "simple structure" to
house this information. The result was finally unveiled at a special B.B.Q. organised by
the Transport Hall of Fame. Thanks to Ron and June's enthusiasm and interest in the Scouts, the
result was a beautiful wooden replica of the Scout windscreen frame mounted on a four legged
base with the information housed in an air-tight case behind the windscreen.
