On the last Sunday of each month, Tui Breweries is running a vehicle related show at their brewery at Mangatainoka. There is a small fee for displaying your vehicle (which goes to a worthwhile cause), but it is free to viewing for spectators. Last Sunday was dedicated to American cars.

I first saw this 1935 De Soto when its owner had just got it on the road at Shannon car show earlier this year and it impresses just as much now , as it did then. Great choice of paint for a car of this era. |

While that front looks very much like an Australian Falcon, the two doors and left hand drive, makes it quite unique in New Zealand. |

The long and sharp edged 1959 Chrysler New Yorker Saratoga is in stark contrast to the tall and rounded '39 Plymouth. |
