However I was discussing it with Ant the V3000 Man, and he's currently torn between not meeting up with OS and getting there super early to sift through the bargains, or cruising with OS and potentially getting there too late to score anything cool. It's a fair point. He could always shoot down first thing and then catch up with us when we arrive later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1963 AP5 Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 I will be bringing my boys along and I am assuming the boss will be into the cruise as well since I am planning on driving her car. 8:00 start should be manageable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well let me decide, if i'm coming right up north in the Green Mirage or the Stellar to pickup you up, then your gonna have too chip in for a fair amount of that gas mayte. Shes a pretty big job aye? It will also require me too get outta bed fairly early and be there at around 6AM. You will also have to put up with my rambling on about Mitsubishi's all day, and "A groovy kind of love" I have for a particular kind of Korean car.

What about i drive as far as somewhere near glenfield? That'd be cool of you though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldrx7 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 i don't think i can make it now either - taking the car for a wof saturday morning , i have a feeling it won't pass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threeonthetree Posted April 26, 2017 Author Share Posted April 26, 2017 i was chauffeured from Auckland to Hamilton and back again by @0R10N in his DR30 recently. I think the best route would be to follow SH1 down to the fairly new Te Kauwhata interchange, veer West and cross the Waikato river and then take Rotongaro Road around Lake Rotongaro, through Huntly West and remain on the Western side of the Waikato river until Ngaruawahia. Then jump back onto SH1 at Horotiu and cruise the remaining few kilometres to the Classics Museum Swap Meet. This route is exactly 100km from the Papakura BP truckstop to the Swap meet. Here is a link to the route we will take: ROUTE Meet at the BP station before 8am and we'll leave at 8. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just quietly, I don't have any working Oldschool cars left hahahaha. So will have to arrange a ride or take one of the daily vehicles. So yeah in my opinion I'd rather have people turn up in something than not turn up at all because they don't have an old car. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thanks for the offer of a seat though, but since i'd already talked myself out of taking my car I've promised the mrs we'll be doing house reno stuff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
