The VMVC is a non-profit club run by enthusiasts of ex-military vehicles. The club is based in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. New members are welcome. The club will provide friendship, technical help and fun ! Meetings are held at the Rats of Tobruk hall, 44 Victoria Avenue, Albert Park on the first Tuesday of the month ( no meeting in January ).Meetings begin at 8 pmMembership Enquiries:Please contact the secretary, Gordon Edwardsa42ausjeep@hotmail.com
The vehicle featured on the club logo is a 1942 Dingo scout car . During the ' invasion scare ' period of 1942 , prior to the procurement of overseas armour , Ford at Geelong Vic. built a number of these scout cars, they were based on Marmon Herrington 4X4 axles . The design was considered to be unsuccessful , excessive weight , bad cross country ability and poor visibility being the main problems . Click on the logo to visit the Dingo page ----->
