A heavy cast iron bath tub and a Holden front-end loaded under the coach at the 2007 Bendigo SwapmeetThe Collectors Tour has been making the journey to the Bendigo swap for several years and is enjoyed by all who have taken part of this annual collectors pilgrimage. The value of items brought back by the coach usually excedes $20,000.

If you have the collecting bug or just searching for that elusive part for a vintage or veteran car or motorcycle then the collectors tour may be just what you need to get away for a few days of swapping with friends.

The photo at left shows the front-end of a Holden being loaded on the coach at the Bendigo swap in 2007 and yes that is a cast-iron bath tub below it. People do bring back some strange items!
