The Melbourne to Moscow challenge

Postby Malchik on Tue Feb 08, 2011 3:40 pm

For those of you who like antique cars as well as travel and adventure, you might find the Melbourne to Moscow challenge interesting.

Departing from Melbourne, Australia on the 4th of September 2011 an almost 100 year old car with myself at the wheel, will set off for Moscow, Russia via Africa and the Middle East; an almost 20000km journey passing through four continents.

The purpose of the journey is to mark the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Australia and Russia as well as to commemorate the 100th anniversary of two epic motoring journeys.

Greetings from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Once I get a transit visa for Sudan I will drive to Khartoum where I will apply for a transit visa for Saudi Arabia. If I can get a transit visa for Saudi Arabia I will take a ferry across the Red Sea to Jeddah then drive to the UAE. From Sharjah I will take the ferry to Iran. I already have a visa for Iran.

Can someone tell me what the email address of the Classic Car Club and Old Car Museum in Sharjah is? Also, I've found the website address of the Saudi Classic Car but I cannot read Arabic to see what the email address is...can someone help me? See:
