ROTHMANS INTERNATIONAL SOUTHERN CROSS RALLY
Sydney – Canberra – Bairnsdale – Canberra – Sydney, 4-8 October 1967

This year Ferguson and Johnson made up for the disappointment of their 1966 run with a runaway win in their Volkswagen. Run similarly from Sydney into Victoria and return, the rally provided much drama. Ferguson displaced Frank Kilfoyle as winner at Bairnsdale, and a navigation error removed a threat by John Keran. The run home was Ferguson all the way and he led the 26 official finishers into Sydney with Frank Kilfoyle/Doug Rutherford second in their Cortina Mark 2 and Bob Holden/George Shepheard third in their Cooper S.
