Lead Central,Turangi...NZ..
Friday afternoon we went north,to the centre of the North Island,,Turangi,a small town,which started out as a power project town..(Google it I know meller probably will)..A new branch of the local NSRA started up there last year..This year was the second annual swap meet,and display,,and as a couple of the guys arwe into kustoms,,they were putting the emphasis on kustoms this year..The route we took,is known as the Forgotten World Highway,,and goes through some rugged,but beautiful terrain..including 16km of gravel road..very narrow,and tight bends,too..I swear you can hear banjoes playin in places,,its that remote..
..Anyway,,heres a link to some pix Lynda took,on the road up,and at the venue..Unfortunately,,a few of the cars started leaving after only a couple of hours,,which is quite infuriating for the organisers,who want/need this to grow..All that really matters,is that those of us who were there,had a good day..Couldnt stay the night,as we had three Baptisms happening today,( Sunday down here)..

If we aren't supposed to have midnight snacks,,,WHY is there a light in the refrigerator???

The engine looks awesome, I like the low intake. That'll be some eye candy when the hood is popped.
