It’s a full days tour over some of the most scenic sealed roads in the region and is open to all Fords from 1903 – 2010. There will also be some interesting destinations along the way. If you want to come along and take part or just see the cars before they set off, then the start venue is the Janel Coffee Lounge in Hawke Street, New Brighton, Christchurch. The participating vehicles will assemble from 9am to 10am, with the Fords to depart progressively from 9:15am. There will be a free NZ Classic Car magazine for all entrants plus a chance to win a years subscription through answering the question sheet with en-route answers. You can bring your own picnic or buy something at the venue. Entry fee is only $10 per vehicle, and all Fords are welcome regardless of age or condition. The event is sponsored by Avon City Ford and Parkside Media. For more information contact Trevor Stanley on (03) 942 9977. Sounds Fun

  18. i think Ferrari had a 1.5 V6 . prob not production thou
  19. im pritty sure those 6A10 engines are the smallest V6 ever made in production, well used to be anyway. be fun in a go-cart.
  20. i think its just a factory ghia grill. soon going to convert to round headlight anyway, pm me if keen on it.
  21. Well i managed to get a one-piece from a wagon and get it in the ghia no problem wish i knew the diff plate was different first thou the bearing in the 2-piece was well used is there any disadvantage running a one-piece? i mean you should be able to get better suspension angles with a 2-piece right? but the 1-piece allows for a lot of travel at the gearbox end with the shaft so i dont know if worth getting the 2-piece recon'd or not
