Not sure I took a photo of the sign saying what it was.  But I spent almost 3 hours in there and took a heap of photos.  All up I think it is 15,000sqm and packed with cars, trucks, pumps, jukeboxes and all manner of other stuff. Even had a section on NZ cricket, albeit a pretty small section as one would expect.



One of my favourites was this old 1950's camper hooked up to a Kombi in matching dark red and white colour scheme.



The E-type was pretty sweet too.  I could go on and on and on, it really was spectacular.

If it was a soft top I am sure I could find a home for it in the shed. Looks like it was a hoot of a show.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_Valiant_(AP5)      A    pastel green  AP5 with a warmed up 318 Fireball and 727 Torque flight was one of my  wedding cars ..
Till a last minute break down .
The girls had to put up with an SS  commodore instead .. Me and the groomsman got the Val .. was fun working on it while all dressed up like monkeys for the wedding . ;D

I think that one is an AP6 not an AP5.  I was wrong the AP6 had column shift not VC.

Never mind Barn Find. Here is Paddock Find. Probably requires a little more resto though.

Best mates new ride.  8)

Previously had one about 20 years ago in Capricorn Coral.

Then a red fb Ute.

Both of those were converted to HR disc break front ends.

This one is very nice, twin exhaust, mild cam fully balanced grey motor with dual strombergs. It sound awesome, very smooth.  He is keeping it relatively stock with drums all round this time  :o
