Hey motorheads.
Killer site, been enjoying some of the old school hot rodding stories etc. Any other Kiwi's out there got some classic car yarns? ie Queen St and Neilson St's in the 70's and 80's? Not quite Van Nuys, done in Hillmans and Morris Oxfords that were later set on fire at Cornwallis beach at dawn while drinking Lion Red listening to Led Zeppelin. We kept the jacked up Falcons and Zephyrs though, which usually got stolen anyway.

Sounds like a unique time, and a great story. There are so many posts on this site, that I suspect a lot of guys don't get around to reading the "who' is new to this site" stuff. Just a suggestion: try starting a rodding related thread with the word Kiwi, New Zealand, or Auckalnd in it, and you will get some replies.

Thanks for the tips Skidsteer.
Just found this thing yesterday by accident, was searching the web for some interesting 1970's street race stories in Van Nuys etc, and came across this thing. Still finding me way around at the mo, v good resource for car folk. Cheers All.
