Re: A Few Cars EFV8 Visit local collection Christchurch
It's a shame! A SHAME, I tell you! - All of those beautiful cars with their steering wheels on the wrong side!

DSC04446.jpg DSC04449.jpg DSC04450.jpg DSC04452.jpg DSC04454.jpg DSC04455.jpg DSC04456.jpg DSC04458.jpg Some of these cars especially a lot of the 50's and 60's ones are ex USA. And a few early onnes ex USA and some right hand conversions have been carried out. Heres a few more pics. Did not take some many pics of 50's and 60's cars etc of which there were plenty.

DSC04460.jpg DSC04462.jpg DSC04463.jpg DSC04464.jpg DSC04466.jpg Would have been about 200 vehicles give or take. This is just a selection of those that i photographed. We were so fortunate to be able to view this collection which has been set out in age periods as well as a good selection of Mercurys and a large number of Edsels. Other club members who attended maybe will share their pics as well. Phil NZ. |

Re: A Few Cars EFV8 Visit local collection Christchurch
Very nice collection. Thank you for sharing. It's good to see these cars and parts have survived. This collection would make a great article for the V-8 Times.

Re: A Few Cars EFV8 Visit local collection Christchurch
Guys where is the building located in Christchurch ? I don't recognize it & it has to be very large . I have never seen the collection but have talked to Chis briefly trying to get to see dads pickup again but never was able to make it happen.
Thanks to all for sharing !!!!!! Cheers Tony |
