h4nd Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 High quality. Well, I guess that rules me out. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FraserNZ Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 All going well I will take the Healey there - just need to get the overdrive sorted which won't engage all of the time. It is only held every 2 years and there was some nice stuff there last time, hopefully the weather is good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waspman Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Make sure you enter before you go, they like to "select" cars, not just have cars turn up, plus be ready for an early start - like being there at 8am and can't get your car until 4pm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FraserNZ Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Yes already entered and will be in Akaroa for the weekend. I did offer to take the Fraser but they weren't keen on 'one of those kit car things'! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FraserNZ Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 There isn't that much flat land in Akaroa and for whatever reason the organisers seem to want it to be 'by invite'. Regardless, there was some nice stuff there and the weather was great. Not so the overdrive in the Healey... Anyone recognise the white Daimler by any chance... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bling Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 They perhaps limit numbers so the reserve has a chance to survive all the leaked oil. If I didn't have to deal with extra traffic on the road to Akaroa I would have popped over for a look. /lazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
