| An old Kenworth rests in the sun on a farm near Martinborough. |
 |
This International S Line at Martinborough looks in quite good condition, but the long grass indicates it hasn't moved for a little while.
|
 |
| A 50s Chev spends it's days beneath a tree West of Masterton. |
 |
| This Commer Cob was near the main road at Eketahuna, but has now gone. Maybe taken away for restoration. |
 |
| Flush door handles and front door quater-lights indicate this is an Australian built Mini "K". They were powered by the 1100cc motor. What did "K" stand for.........kangaroo maybe? |
 |
| This Bedford was parked in a field on the Eketahuna-Alfredton Road. I recently saw a restored example exactly the same model as this and I am wondering if it may be the same vehicle. I must take a ride out that way and see if it is still there. |

| R. S. Lane Panel and Paint shop in Petone operate this workshop ute (pick-up). The rusty rear end is of course a clever bit of painting. |
 |
| An old David Brown at Eketahuna. |
 |
| An empty section in Featherston is home to a Vauxhall, a couple of Wolseleys (or Rileys) and a Chev. |
 |
| Gladstone to the South East of Masterton is the resting place for this International D279. |
 |
| Rusty, but still in use is this Kenworth W924, snapped in Stokes Valley near Wellington in 2009. |
 |
| For many years Roly Warrington had a motor garage in Carterton. The business is long gone, but Roly's old Commer is still in existence. |
 |
| Two HC Vauxhall Vivas rust away in a field at Gladstone, South-East of Masterton. |
In the photo of the old cars, the two Wolseleys (or Rileys) are Wolseley 6/90s. They are neither Riley Pathfinder nor Riley Two Point Six models as only the Wolseley had the chrome strip that finished half way along the front doors.
