VALE - BOB EASTGATE
It is with much sadness we announce that Bob Eastgate, owner of Mustang VH BOB, passed away on 2nd July 2020 after a long and courageous battle against Motor Neurone Disease.
For the past 3 years Bob has been supervising the restoration of the Mustang from afar, impressed and proud of the work being undertaken by his son Rob and ‘The Boys” as he called the dedicated team of engineers.
Bob was well known amongst the warbird scene for his support, his knowledge and his commitment to the preservation of our Australian historical aircraft.
Bob hoped that many more people will one day again be able to enjoy the thrill of a ride in the backseat of VH BOB.
He will be greatly missed by those who knew this kind, considerate and brave man.
