I wonder. I hope my 1500 photo copied voting slips with Viva on them might do the trick...

Wow- loads of info on that turboforums.com! cool. good link.

Oh I thought it was sweet. Mounted so far back it would handle sweet and very tidy install. But yeah- a lot of V8s (although I do love V8s so not a bother for me) What hannah and I noticed was a almost total lacking of everyday runners- cheaper classics like your Triumph, Vivas, Hunters, Avengers, Morris minors and Austin 1100s etc...oh an no VWs at all? oh yeah- no MGs!!! I have never been to a classic car show and not seen at least one or two MGs?!

Was an awesome show and the weather was great! I slapped on sunscreen but still ended up pink. Took many photos on my phone- since discovering our camera was stuffed. Some seriously nice cars there. Peripheral ported R100 was sweet. Detailed aqua pastel blue Holden EJ ute was very cool. Bright red '74 911 tasty. Lowered Bimmer V12 850 with sweet exhaust note was sweet. Tasty pottle of hot chips was another high point. Photos from me in a while...

ha excellent. Top prank. Such colour co-ordination. You have many stars!

You can just turn up on the day in your chevette. Is iut a yellow hatch? saw a yellow hatch on way to cruise friday night. looked so choice- had recessed lights like all good chevettes should.... Yeah Sam- Viva all clean too. Hannah cleaned the engine bay and touched up the paint chips on engine etc while I was at work. we'll be there at 9 so to get a good spot. Will- Vivas are cheap cheap cheap at the moment and with huge engine bays.....

Was good meeting you yesterday Will. See ya sunday- got hannah at home cleaning the Viva. Hopefully see you there in trump sam

Tonights cruise and BBQ... http://www.nelsoncarshow.com/news/frida ... d-bbq-2012 I'm gonna try make it along. I like seeing old cars. I like BBQs I like food.

One of the most undervalued cars in the world I think. They always make me smile and I always wonder why they never sell for much here or in other countries. Such good value. I guess they don't suffer from scene tax...yet...

Sweet. Could you post up a photo of em? I wanna find something funny, like some random big show or event that happened around '68-70 thereabouts so I can make a period window sticker to suit. The car wears otago plates so I have been looking up things like A&P shows from down that way for inspiration. Will make my own stickers once I have an idea. edit: I will attempt to make my own stickers....

Yeah Viva is entered. Entry number 007 I might be out in Viva tonight- not sure yet. Pm me your number wilddat. 2500- whats up with trump? Will you have it sorted for show?

stickers. Period bowling club stickers or something. Oh and a thin pin stripe along the side.

Sweet- bring tools. You can earn money on the way fixing broke trucks along the way.

All the trumps I have owned have fuel lights that start to flicker above 1/4 tank.

We used to get 30 mpg in our UK manual overdrive 2500S. Thats 9.4 L/100km for you young folk btw. Pretty bloody good for a heavy car thats cruised beautifully. My much lighter Viva only manages 27 mpg (10.4l/100) but it has got one of them dangfangled thirsty pulsing wankel thingees.. probably slowed down by all the hoes I pick up..

Always good to have a target date eh!

we'll be there on sunday. looking forwards to it. First big nz car show i have been to in years! Might have a mini lineup of vauxhalls but not getting hopes up.

What colour is it when speedo hits 110mph?... I love that speedo. Mine has a strip speedo too but with just a boring needle

Have you started a thread for your Rx2? Keen to see more of Rx's on here

I would take an extra in the Viva but Hannah and I want to continue on to Napier for a few days after the nats.

thursday night sailing.. evobilly - 1 car, 1 person. Yoeddynz - 1 car, 2 people.

EDIT-was gonna nab a sofa spot at yours KK but just spotted you are further away than low'n'slow. So going for closer place..Mr Low - can Hannah and I have a tent site please on your fine lawn. What ferry company do you get the deals on KK?

Is this the badge you need? http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-par ... 675638.htm

Apricot would look sweet. seriously. Or some Miro. Some old boy once told me that nz triumphs built in nelson used local wood veneer. I wonder what type?
