A South Island car through the period -
More information;
Peter Preston raced this car in the 1960's in the South Island and I note that it was owned by an
- " Ivy Alice Preston " from 20 July 1961 to 29 July 1964.
Would have had the 1961 - 64 plates 759.025 when purchased and the permanent plates A!6477 - just issued when sold 29 July 1964.
The car currently has the plate " GHH417 " under the ownership of Mark Garmey, Mark and his father Ian Garmey [ RIP Ian recently ] have the car in excellent condition and it features in a New Zealand Classic Driver - Special Edition Magazine published in late 2021.
The story of the car in the magazine has some anomalies, if these papers are to be believed.
They were issued in 1975, and would appear to be a re-issue.
The car as featured with others in the Magazine - posted later n the thread also.

A South Island car through the period -
Have been contacted by " Cooper56 ", Ian and son Mark now have this car.
Here is Ian's message ;
" Buckler 90/3.
This car is in my care and is owned by my son Mark.
Mark would very much like to add these papers to the car's history file, would it be possible to obtain them from you, or at least a copy of them.
"
Oldfart, do you have a copy of the papers that Ian Garmey [ Cooper56 ] could have for his son Mark.
Have suggested that he contact you either through TRS or Facebook, on " Buckler Cars and Karts " page.
Cheers
Roger
Further Note ; Rhys did not post the papers on Fb and my notes on them says G Currie A Warren.
Have passed the information onto Ian Garmey, for Mark Garmey who Rhys is in contact with..

Buckler 90/1 formerly in NZ now in Holland
Note from Bart Jonkers regarding KA 6377.
1950s The ex New Zealand 90/1 today has passed all RDW (Dutch Road Authority) tests for roadworthyness, individual type approval and vehicle identity verification! That means that in a few days i’ll have dutch license plates and can start driving it. Exactly 6 months after arrival in NL.
For those of you who assisted in getting to this point with tech help, historic documentation, brochures showing specs and even video clips showing ‘normal’ tie rod play : a BIG Thank You!!
