That's right - there is only one day left to register for the 40th Anniversary of the Leyland P76 Event to be held in Canberra on 29 and 30 June 2013 (with an informal and unofficial catchup on the Friday evening for those arriving early).



Any registration form received up until midnight of 15 May 2013 will be honoured.

The following events are being organised by the Canberra and District Leyland P76 Owners Club and an organising committee comprising members of other P76 Owners Clubs, the BMC Heritage Group and the P76 National Council.

10:00AM to 2.00PM - Press Release Run to Gundaroo 

Replicating the press release run from 1973, registered participants in the 40th Anniversary celebrations will recreate the original run to Gundaroo in P76 cars. They will travel via Tidbinbilla Deep Space Tracking Station and Honeysuckle Creek. In Gundaroo they will have lunch and return in time to socialise with other participants and prepare for the formal dinner. 
Jointly coordinated by the ACT and NSW P76 Clubs
