All about the dads
Masterton Motorplex and NAPA Auto Parts Dragway, Meremere, held Father’s Day meetings on Sunday September 6. Grab your September NZ Petrolhead to find out who was crowned King or Queen of the Dragstrip at MMP, and if it was an Australian or American victory at Meremere. The lead car feature is Pauline Harwood’s super-cool, leopard print 1964 Dodge Custom 880 hardtop wagon that’s got a modern Hemi under the hood, and it proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that longroofs are cool. You’ll read about the Vintage Car Club of NZ’s Daffodil Rallies for Cancer, and a Tararua Rodders club profile.

NZ Rodder #197
Your mid-winter NZ Rodder fix has an air-bagged kustom flavour, along with a big dose of Beach Hop awesomeness.
A superb ’37 Lincoln-Zephyr taildragger is issue #197’s headline story. Every aspect of this kustom has been restored, massaged or modified, from the flathead V12 to the C-notched, four-bar rear. The same goes with the second lead story, a ’50 Chevy that the owner chopped, dropped, shaved, painted and upholstered in his home garage. The third car feature is a historic ’37 Chevy circuit car that recently found its way back home to New Zealand.Seeing as this is the first NZ Rodder since Christmas, it showcases a swag of summer events.
Twenty-four pages of Beach Hop coverage, along with the NZHRA Street Rod Nationals, and Ol’ Skool and Nostalgias drag meetings. We take a close look inside the Kumeu show shed, and tag along on The Ignitors’ one-day ‘pre ’49 rod run.
