On January 5th, 1975, the Lake Illawarra bulk ore carrier crashed into the Tasman Bridge in Hobart. Of the vehicles that were on the bridge, two vehicles stopped, dangling over the edge. One of them was a HQ GTS Monaro, owned by Frank and Sylvia Manley, who carefully escaped from the car to safety. This vehicle, still in its original condition, is currently on show in the Launceston Motoring Museum. 2025 marks the 50th anniversary of this event and we remember the twelve people that were killed in this disaster.
