In September of 2013 MokeFest is going on the road with an Adventure to Perth in Western Australia to meet the locals, tour areas of the state and for those from the eastern states will take the iconic trip across the Nullarbor. Being held in recognition of the efforts WA Mokers have made to come to events on the eastern side of the country and for something different to the previous events, MokeFest 2013 WA Adventure is going to be a once in lifetime opportunity for many people.

Mokes left the factory wearing Winter Tread style tyres that were probably practical for the agricultural market but a pretty poor choice for the bitumen. For some people though it is a look they want to re-create on their Moke, an aggressive chunky tyre type look while for other owners looking to go bush, the diminishing range of 13" passenger tyres just aren't really suitable and new Winter Treads tyres aren't available. The only choice, read more expensive, available is the small range of competition rally tyres and in this article I attempt to identify what is available.

Well known Children's book Author Paul Jennings has got himself a nice 1973 Moke in a shade of Home on the O'range and has been making a few mods to suit his tastes.
