Ken, that V8 sign on the 37 was made by a club member (I believe), who brought them along to the Nelson National meet in 2003, and had them for sale. Sold a few too, saw a 35 coupe with them on also.

Fordscript, you get an A+ for taking nice pictures and posting them here. There is nothing like a group shot of very nice early Ford V-8's all lined up as straight as an arrow. Thanks for posting!

WOW Awesome pics !!!!! Thank You !!!
I wonder how many (if any) of these great cars I may have worked on in my youth ????
The Green 45 (on its plate) pick up , did it by any chance have Burnetts , on the door ? if so I for sure worked on it & have many parts now over here that came from Burnetts .
Thanks again !!!
Cheers
Tony
