Steve,
Terry Ferguson in Hamilton changed the car and make it more of a street rod than show car and then sold it Into the UK. It was a 30 Ford roadster on a 34 frame. Built by Gary Sword and Peter Barnett. At one time it was NZ's top hot rod/show car. Genuine 57 Vette engine ex hydroplane. with 6 x 2 barrel carbs Many a Friday night spent racing in Queen street. My mother never liked riding in it , the doors popped open when I gave it a shoefull.
Hey Duncan, brings back vague memories of a couple of local ‘hoods’ in a cut down ’30 sports coupe powered by a dirty old Y Block giving that genuine ’57 vette powered roadster a run for it’s money down Eastern Beach one night. Couldn’t that strip of tarmac, tell a few stories !
