Historic Sport Sedans

[Andrew Metford]

Dad found the photo he took of Barry standing with his car at Pukekohe. We have it dated as 9 October 1988, I was 11 then.

We would have driven out to watch the days' racing in Dad's 1967 MK 2 Cortina, white with red vinyl interior, bench seat, and 4 on the tree. I used to love going to the race track with Dad in his Cortina, which he'd rebuilt and painted at home, a trend that has continued with all of our old cars right up to this day. Dad kept that car immaculate, as he does all his cars. Ah the memories of the good old days, and I'm only 36!!!!

Thanks for the update John on Barry's progress, and I hope others are having success with their preparations. I think this class will be the spectacle of the event and create a lot of excitement.
