Big All-Mopar show in New Zealand - in rural Morrinsville . . .(picture feast)

[dadsbee]

Thanks Roger! No wonder there's no Hemi cars left over here! LOL

Someone forget to install their trim clips before rear glass install...

What an awesome collection of Mopars! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! Wonderful pictures. Feel like we 1st Generation Charger owners might be shunned, sniff sniff.

 

[Geetex]

Looks like a great turnout, even with the weather turning bad. Is that your former purple GTX?

 

[chargervert]

Great pics of great cars! Thanks KIWI!

 

[Kern Dog]

That looks like a great turnout for a country of your size. Lots of quality cars and trucks.
I love seeing the "down under" A body cars and their differences between them and the cars we had up here.
This car in the picture....Is this a V8 swap? I thought these had the straight 6 exclusively:

Finally, is it weird to drive a left hand drive car on the road with all the other cars being right hand drive?

That's a heck of a show and what a great collection of mopars !
Dig the New Zealand versions and the paint schemes !
The orange GTX's rear window, yikes !
Love the Valiants especially the black 62 which is exactly what I had in high school.
Brings back memories, man oh man

 

[PlymCrazy]

Thanks for bringing us a little taste of your side of the planet Kiwi! Good stuff sharing the moment us.

What's up with the rear window trip on that closeup pic?

I don't know what happened to that rear window, but I suspect things didn't align like they should have.
I think they had a Chinese tiler do the seam sealing.

Thanks for the pic Roger, looks like a great show. If only I wasn't 12,000 miles away at the moment lol.

 

[kiwigtx]

Also you did a shout out to MarPar.....do you realize you posted all of this in the Moderator Forum?

You didn't read that entire thread did you....

 

[kiwigtx]

Thank you! Wonderful pictures. Feel like we 1st Generation Charger owners might be shunned, sniff sniff.

There were plenty of cars left at home all around the place.....I saw a 1st Gen Charger before we even left.

Yep, it was a great show and display....shame about the weather.

I suspect even more would have turned up if the weather played ball........99% chance of thunderstorms predicted.

Lucky you can buy sealant by the pallet load here.

Yes, that most definitely was. It has already changed hands again.......probably for the last time.
The new owner is well known for keeping everything he buys.

He's a great guy who I actually met around 38 years ago......he's always been into classic cars.

 

[kiwigtx]

There is another video up where the guy does a big walk-through of the cars.

Seems he was blown away with a few vehicles.

only about 9000 miles for me lol

 

[Hey-O]

Thanks for sharing!! I sometimes feel I own a bastard child, you hardly ever see a 65 coronet. There are none that I have seen near me either. I took it to the store yesterday and when I came out three people were walking around it. Like always they say, I forgot all about these, I haven't seen one in years.

You're a good dad, taking it to the store with you. I don't see a bastard in that lol

You didn't read that entire thread did you....

When I read across the shout out to MarPar, I checked to make sure where I was and at that time it said Moderator Forum. Now you may have moved it when I posted what I did? Didn't refresh the page until I posted but didn't go back to the top to look at where it was again. And if you said something about it before that post, I missed it. Also got off the puter and went to get back in my sleeper/easy chair.
