Concours @ Ellerslie










The big show of the year for Auckland, this year hosted by the Mustang Owners Club which resulted in huge turn out of very nice Mustangs. The Fraser 7 guys had 9 cars on display including a V6 Mazda beast, the MG Car Club was well represented... I must renew my membership of both clubs................
Pic 1: Some of the large Mustang display
Pic 2: The NZ super car project bearing the name of the late great Denny Hulme. I am not sure what stage the car is at.
Pic 3: V6 power in a very light Fraser 7.... that is a hell of a lot of engine!!!
Pic 4 & 5: 1964 Sprite powered by a Toyota twin cam. This grabbed my attention as a certain Warkworth based car builder reckons when I blow the arse out of the MG engine this is what we replace it with?? Some impressive figures quoted on the cars spec sheet. MMmmm engine fits nicely..... Mind you I have to get the MG on the track before I get a chance to blow it up!! March 17 & 18 looks like the big debut............
