Yes Ken will be there. We arrive 3rd and unload container on Thursday 6th I believe and do Pre-Reunion meet on 7th to 9th and then back on 12th Rolex Reunion. Be great to catch up.

Cheers Guys

Kevin,
I recently sent you a PM message and I wondered if it came through ok ?
(Ken Hyndman )
Ken, Hi,no nothing in Taupo, Had an uncle in Morrinsville in partnership in a garage though, Ball & Hirst, you may recall them, uncle contracted polio as a child & spent his life in leg irons but boy could he still get over, under & around cars, neat guy & did some great restorations, All the best for the festive season Ken.
Thanks Kevin,
When was your uncle in Morrinsville ?
I know some wonderful people who have suffered with polio and admire what they can still achieve in life.
chaindrive,
Sorry, I got carried away.
Ken H
He He !
Chaindrive looking good already .. cheers, look forward to seeing the progress in 2106
Really, I think Chaindrive might be hoping to get it finished before that..
Yep me too !! bloody finger faster than my eyes, ...
........Didn't think I would last that long !!!!!!!!
Well Fellas, I think this will be the last.................. At least I got it finished before 2106
I haven't got the correct 5 Slots for the front. If anyone has a set of 1/25 s under the bed ,luv to hear from you

Roger D and no 1/25's under my bed do have a couple of Drag wheels though from unmade 1939 Chev Convertibles ' still in the boxes from the 1970's with the stovebolt six, make them as standard or modified !! Revell I think.
Any help? Not the best of action pics - before I got a decent DSLR camera!
Brilliant............Thanx ERC
Sent you a PM Chaindrive.
Make them '37 Chevs, got them out recently one made as a bit of a racer with the twin carb stovebolt, the other unmade, also have a Willys flip front Gasser, also built with a huge V8 - actually went out and bought glue and some paint, am going to restore the built ones first, [ made them first in 1971 as a 20 something, had just got married and a mate married around the same time both like kitsets, the Chevs are AMT and were made in NZ, must have imported the mould from the USA ] then see if I want to do the new one plus a couple of 1990 NA model MX5's, was going to one original and one, with a V8, from a box of bits I have .. and it is still 2016 [ not 2106 ]..
** Update July 2019 - still talking / thinking about the re-build and build -left the glue and paint in Australia - have to buy some more - Now back on the bucket list !!
