AmeriCARna (in New Zealand)

[Hot Rod Todd]

About 8 or so years back, the Chamber of Commerce supported their then president who wanted an American car festival with some rock n roll thrown in, in New Plymouth New Zealand.

Here are a bunch of photos from the 2014 event. I cant put them in the "events" section as there werent too many T Buckets there, but thought you may enjoy seeing others getting a kick out of your cars and your country.

Golly Adams attended the event (its his home town and was mine too) and sent me thru the pikkys.

Will put up more of Gollys pikkys over the next day or two. And yes, those 57-8-9 Chevs look as weird down here as they look up in the USA.

All the local bars and restaurants are open obviously and doing a good trade.

Pikky at the bottom is Golly and Mrs Golly (Geena).

And here are the two buckets that Golly photographed & sent thru to me:


and note that one bucket has IFS which is very uncommon down here
