Greetings Members

Welcome to the first edition of your Branch Magazine for 2023. Highlight for me since the last publication was the annual Taihape Gumboot Rally. What a blast! Chairman Andrew has covered this in his monthly Chairman’s Report, so I will not repeat Andrew’s comments, other than to heartily congratulate our valued Cub Member, Robert Baines, for heading this great event. Special thanks to Dave and Lyn Austin for once again assisting Robert and his Taihape team. Really fitting that Dave and Lyn won the raffle. Once again, the rally prizes on offer were extremely plentiful and set out “Taihape style” on Robert’s hoist platform in his workshop. Obviously there was a lot of work canvassing sponsors for the prizes, so a special thank you to these businesses. I think that it is the convivial atmosphere in a rural town setting that sets this annual event apart from others. A great way to start off the New Year, culminating with a hearty BBQ. Rather disappointing that only 23 vehicles entered though, and some of these were not from our Branch. I realise at this time of the year, many are away on holiday or with family and there are some unwell. And there is the extra distance and associated costs to travel. Sure, there were a few metal roads to negotiate, but overall, these were very good and with limited dust. So how about it Members, lets make a concerted effort to build up next year’s numbers. Congratulations to Trudy and Mac Keene from Hunterville for winning the coveted Gumboot Trophy in their Austin Sheerline.

The annual Christmas Parade drew only a handful of Members vehicles. I stand to be corrected, but I only counted six from our Branch. There were lots of cheering spectators lining the Avenue, so it was somewhat disappointing that our numbers were so few, as this is an ideal platform to showcase our old vehicles. Pleased that the O’Keeffe’s paraded our old Club truck though. Similarly the following week, the Hakeke Community Christmas Party at Williams Domain next door to our Clubrooms, only drew three members vehicles. Sure the weather looked a little inclement, but hoards of kids lined up to see the vehicles on display, and the two military vehicles were kept busy ferrying young ones around the Domain. All good PR for our movement and the NZMVC. I do not wish to appear negative over reporting and commenting on low Member turnouts, and hope that I have not offended anyone, but it is a little frustrating for Branch organisers if turn outs are so low.

Another gripe I have, (boy oh boy I must have woken up on the wrong side of the bed) is road rage. Happened to me the other day when I was driving home from the farm. We live on a winding section of narrow road, with a ditch on one side. Impossible to pull over heading north opposite our driveway. A car approached me in the opposite direction. I had indicated my intention to cross the road into our home and stopped on the left of the centre of the road and waited for the oncoming car to pass by. I noticed a car approaching me from behind travelling at speed and tooting like crazy. They should have slowed down until I made my turn! Once in my driveway I stopped and got out of my vehicle, as it was quite clear that these half wits had an agenda, and it was not to exchange pleasantries. Strange looking young men, one with cobwebs tattooed all over his face. Car was full of such creatures. I was asked if I would like a knuckle. I declined their kind offer as I possess my own thank you. I suggested that they go home, have a cup of tea and a lie down and look in the paper for a job. I didn’t appreciate their voiced intentions and told them so. Next step would have been for me to place my head between my legs and kiss my butt goodbye! I mean, a 72 year old man with health issues taking on a car load of louts who looked like they had just been released from Her( His) Majesty’s Apartments in Kaitoke! Anyway, they duly left with much finger saluting. Shouldn’t have to take this sort of nonsense. No respect. I went home and had a cup of tea and yearned for days past when I too was a young man who would not take kindly to such oafish behaviour. Then Frances told me off for standing up for myself! Cannot win sometimes. Yours in cruising Editor Ian

Chairman's Report — January 2023

Greetings Members

We have normally stayed up late to see the New Year in. We didn’t this year as my singing voice isn’t what it used to be and nobody had the words to Auld Lang Syne, but we did get up early on January the 1st. Our friend, Helen, had come down from Tamahere to join us as we packed our picnic lunch and headed off for the Gumboot Rally. The girls took the Austin A10 Ute and I travelled with Neil Farrer in his well sorted ’61 Vanguard six estate.

On arrival at the Show Grounds the first vehicle we see is Dave Austin’s Austin utility looking rather dapper to greet us. We were early and already there were 20 odd cars parked. If you haven’t been to a Gumboot Rally you will not have experienced the excitement that folk from the Manawatu and Hawkes Bay Branches have when they come to this great day out.

Soon it was time for organiser Robert Baines to give us our briefing. Entry fee is via a raffle ticket and soon we are on our way. Stephen and Claudia-Ann Voss joined us in the Vanguard. I guess we were doubly fortunate as Neil had lived in Taihape in younger years and was able to add commentary to the already impressive scenery. Of note was the upheaval in the upper areas of Spooner Hill road due to recent Seismic activity. Quite a big area had lifted around 100mm. To my mind the roads were extremely good Vintage Motoring. The sealed roads were very clear and the unsealed roads had smooth and low dust surfaces. We travelled through a village I had never heard of called Rangataua on our way to our lunch stop at Ohakune. It is amazing what you learn on these rallies.

After lunch we headed out onto new roads some of which were not quite so smooth as in the morning but past some very impressive farms and up onto an area called Ridge Road. We were blessed with great weather so the views are impressive. Of note was Robert’s instruction of acute left turn. As there were no Triumph Heralds on the rally this turn was a back and forward turn for all. It all adds to the story and all too soon we were back in Taihape.

Robert hosted us at his Garage, TMS motors, for the extremely generous prize giving and after function Barbeque. Robert’s enthusiasm and dedication to vintage motoring and in particular to this club is of the highest order and I for one am extremely grateful.

Neil and I travel to Christchurch early March for a VCC National executive meeting. Under discussion is new framework requirements for Managing Clubs such as ours. I am very thankful that Neil has a very good grasp of what is required and what needs to be done. I am really looking forward to see what some members of your committee have achieved with the exterior of the Clubrooms. Ray, Christine, Bill along with Heather, Sietse and Pierre have all been seen busy with paint brushes. Bill has organised the paint and is arranging for some new signage.

Club Captain’s Report — January 2023

Greetings

The annual picnic is always a club highlight. I don’t remember a picnic with rain like this year. A surprisingly good turnout and a very enjoyable evening indoors. Earlier I felt like a complete fool at the super market with a trolley of BBQ goodies while outside it bucketed down. Thanks to the committee who worked hard to make a great evening and thanks to everyone who braved the weather. See the happy picnic pics below.

This year starts off as usual with plenty happening.

Vintage Weekend is only days away with plenty of events happening. It would be great to see lots of support on Sunday morning at Moutua Gardens for the start of the Burma Rally and then again on Monday Morning at the Cornmarket reserve for the Anniversary day run. Best wishes to all competing, I know you will love the roads.

On a personal note a few years ago I approached the Chairman of Motorsport NZ Historic Commission with a view to racing in a class he was involved with. I was unaware of tensions within historic racing but shortly after that I was invited to a meeting in Feilding. Much to my surprise the meeting consisted of like minded racers from all over NZ. At that meeting we moved to form the Historic and Vintage Racing Association. I feel very honoured to be a founding member of the HVRA. The class has been formed to provide a suitable class for historic race cars. The class is strict on vehicle specifications and very very strict on driving standards.

The value of some cars leaves no room for muppets. It has resulted in some truly iconic cars returning to the track and is generating huge interest. It is allowing me to realise a dream and race on very circuit in NZ. They are a fantastic group to race with. Sadly Pukekohe will close soon, I was fortunate to tick that off in November.

Enjoy anniversary weekend and best wishes for 2023

1938 Dodge D8 Sedan

Bought this car in a partly assembled but not running state from a farm in Foxton. It took 2 years to complete and get road legal. While working outside Heads Road I heard a throaty exhaust heading down the road and looked up to see the Dodge driving past at pace. This was while it was being VIN’D by VTNZ. When I queried this event I was told that the examiner mistook MPH for KPH. So that is 50 MPH down Heads Road!

1947 Nash Ambassador Sedan

This car was purchased from the Far North in December 1974, partly disassembled and covered in spider rust but running without a gearbox. This was my first restoration. Boy, what a steep learning curve this was! With the help of local VCC members the Nash was on the road in 14 months. This car has travelled approximately 80,000 miles since it became road legal. The Nash has been as far south as Timaru and as far north as Cape Reinga lighthouse car park, and most places in between. When my parents lived in Kaeo in the far North the Nash was often used to go visit them. It took 9.5 hours from Whanganui in the Nash or a modern. A great car to travel long distances with the top speed in excess of 100 MPH if you were ‘brave’ enough, not that this was done on a regular basis.

1978 Chrysler Valiant Panel Van,

One of only 1899 built. I bought this vehicle brand new off the showroom floor at Kirkwood Motors in Victoria Avenue. I bought the Valiant to tow my stockcar around the country's racetracks. When I purchased the panel van I traded a 4 speed Valiant Pacer that I owned and paid cash for the remainder. The car salesman didn’t know that he just needed to give me the keys and a receipt as back in “78 most vehicles were purchased on H.P. at 18% and upwards and he had not done a cash deal. The panel van was already registered in my name ready for pickup. The van did sterling service as a tow vehicle for about a decade with usage during the week as my builder’s trade vehicle. The first stockcar I towed around the country with the panel van was the one I won the NZ stockcars championship in 1978-79 season. In the early 2000’s a friend told me that my old panel van was for sale on Trade me. I followed this up and purchased it back again from the family of the bloke that bought it from me. When I purchased it back it had already be panelled and painted as original but not fully reassembled, so with a bit more tidying and upholstery repairs it became the vehicle you see today.

Keith’s Collection

Historic stockcar 16V

This is a replica of the car I won the NZ champs in at Palmerston North Speedway. Historic Class rules state that if the original car no longer exists it can be replicated by the original owner/builder, or if it is a national title winning car it can be reconstructed by the title winning owner. It is fantastic that I have the original Valiant Panel Van to tow this Historic Replica Stockcar to meetings if I choose.

Left: 1938 Dodge D8 Sedan. I believe that this grand old lady is sporting a later model engine just “to wake her up a little” Sounds like Keith!

Right: 1947 Nash Ambassador Sedan. Big car which I have been led to believe can get along at a fair old clip. With Keith behind the wheel, I’ll bet it can!

Below: Now doesn’t this look cool! 1978 Chrysler Panel Van ( has to be my favourite ) towing Keith’s Historic Stock Car 16V. Keith is a former NZ Stock Car Champion and I’ll wager that he still can hold his own on the track!

There only just over five weeks left for the motorcycle enthusiasts in your branch to register for the 2023 National Motorcycle Rally on Waitangi Weekend next year. Can I please request your assistance in forwarding this email to your members and also bringing this up at your next members meeting?

If your members would like to discuss anything, or want help completing their online registration form, please encourage them to contact me 021 712 198

Many thanks, Sheryn Warren

Dear Editor

I trust all and sundry are currently enjoying a great Christmas break with family and friends, in spite of the inclement weather in some holiday spots around the land of the Long White Cloud. This brief email is to wish you all an awesome New Year, and to remind you of the 2023 Highland Fling!

ACCOMODATION

Before departing Taihape last year, most of the entrants made their accommodation bookings for 2023, a very wise move. However, for anyone who is considering joining us this year in April it would pay you to make your bookings now, as Taihape is not what you would exactly call a 'sprawling metropolis' with numerous options. Please note: bookings for the Gretna Hotel are being managed by us, and bids for rooms will be taken as soon as we work out what is available.

DATES TO MARK IN YOUR DIARY

Friday 21st April - Registration

Saturday 22nd - Fling Rally

Sunday 23rd (day) - Fling Rally continues and Field Tests Sunday 23rd (evening) - Prize Giving Dinner

ENTRY FORMS

I will send the Entry Forms out to you and the branches during the month of February. In the meantime stay happy, healthy, and safe motoring out there on the roads, and let's see what good things 2023 has in store for us.

Cheers
