Default Hot Rods and Bods at Kumeu New Zealand

A scorching hot day at New Zealands biggest show,Thousands of people and hundreds of cars of all makes and models. Scantily clad Woodstock Bourbon girls,monster trucks and many venders selling everything a hotrodder or restorer wants.Very little flathead stuff in the swap section which is the norm these days.I saw a guy who had scored an original ford hot air manifold all in great nick, he was very happy and it's going onto a 34 car. Here is some pics and I'll explain them now as I don't Know how to add text after a photo.
1, This 40 convertable was gorgeous. 2,36 coupe was amazing. 3 35 roadster was beautifull. 5 The black 32 coupe was amazing, an unmolested barn find out of the U.S. no rust and very few dents, how this stayed hidden for 70 years is beyond comprehension. The rest are various engines and cars that caught my eye. I hope you enjoy. Cheers Tony

Love the red and green/black trucks, used to have a 45. But odd that the red ones plates say 4D TRUCK? Those were 42-47 in US, were they offered different years in NZ?

PS; where's the Bods?

That's FORD, not 40. Jailbars were 47-48 here, although there may have been the odd 46 around.
