The 17th annual Henry Ford Memorial Rally of Canterbury sets off this Sunday (29 Aug). 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

whats the rules/years of for rear seat belts?

Also whats the low down with rear-stop lights? i know if car is reg'd first in nz before a certain year you don't have to have but cant remember. chur stz

been some harsh frost in chch

been a bitch in the mornings trying to fire up the Kents,

strangely my 1300 single carb has a harder time to start than the 1600 with twin weber carbs etc ive found the few times ive tried a cheeky squirt of crc down throat has helped straight away, any adverse harm this could do down road?

where are you in the country tregath? still after?

i think Ferrari had a 1.5 V6 . prob not production thou

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.

i think its just a factory ghia grill.

soon going to convert to round headlight anyway, pm me if keen on it.

Any Advice?

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

ive heard rumors through the winds that the 1.1L have a one piece shaft? in that case it would be best to hunt one of them down? if they fit 16-hundys

anyone in chch got a driveshaft?

gt_chrome - you are so lucky to have a Capri is it WOF'ed? id love to have one. mini mustangs

one of my mk2's has developed a noise at low speed in first

have put it down to the drive-shaft bearing

anyone got any experience/tips with changing them?

i can just get new bearing from ford?
