NZ Cars - A Cottage Industry

[PhotoSmith]

I remember the first time I saw one of these, parked outside the little corner shop near where I lived. I was just a kid and my friend and I just stood there gawping, thinking this must have been fastest machine ever built. Then the owner jumped in, started it up, and the VW Beetle motor chugged into life, and I couldn't have been more disappointed! But boy, they are a pretty car.

This one would have sounded a little better, 2.0 litre Datsun powered running in the SCANZ series.

Yes I think I was there this day ,thought it a joke that this yellow car was starting on pole!!but it just cleared out....I think it may be the same car Tony Herbert rebuilt the Lotus chassis back into a single seater?
