Russel 

this is a bit of you mate 

400 with dual four barrels 

I just saw that come up on TM. It is a nice looking car, but once again only one garage space that's taken up by the '57.  And to be honest, I'm not a great fan of the look of the 1955/56 Ponchos.

Back up in the 50's N a beautiful day. Getting lots of yardwork done. Gave up, last I saw the Lions were down 28-0  damn near the temp spread to FLA.

So many old cars in NZ - looks like Taupo has it's fair share too.

interesting you say that mate ... at least of half the cars i posted from sundays breakfast have been imported in the last 15 years !

Now that everyone knows the value in an old car, all sorts of crap that should have been crushed decades ago is commanding top dollar. Remember the Holden Gemini? Now an emerging classic. 70s Mazda rotaries like the R100 are stratospheric. HQ holden 4 door Kingswood with a bench seat, 3 on the tree and 202? How does 40k sound? Ridiculous. The Yanks always had cars that we salivated over: all Ford, GM & Chrysler had to do was to allow local manufacture of those cars. Much cheaper than a standalone country specific model. Don't matter no more - it all went down the toilet.
