Margaret Gee the Person Margaret and Bill Gee joined the Wairarapa Branch of the Vintage Car Club Inc. in May 1993. Together they enjoyed rallying locally and throughout New Zealand. Margaret was a very active member of the branch and was our first lady Chairperson, serving 1995-96 through to 1997-98. Margaret had the idea for our branch jackets, shirts and vest so that when we were out together everyone knew who we were. Sadly she passed away just after her last term as chairperson. It was a great loss to the branch. Francis Elwin

FROM THE CHAIR Hello fellow club members. As your new chairman I would like to extend a warm welcome to our new committee members Andrew Dittmer, Brian Billing and Earl Goodin and thank the existing members for standing again. The AGM was very well attended and I would like to thank Jim Philps for putting his name forward to be our new Newsletter editor replacing Myrna Lane who has been an outstanding editor for the last five years. A job well done thank you. David Hunter is our new Club captain replacing Gary Lang after five years of stewardship guiding us all on the straight and narrow on our adventurous events. Thank you Gary. Finally I would like to thank John Clark for his time as chairman. It is not going to be an easy task following in his footsteps. However, John has kindly put his name forward to be our Treasurer and assist the new chairman along the way! Thank you John. At our 1st committee meeting Hugh Hunter was appointed as a new vehicle inspector. The yearly events calendar was updated with a couple of redesigned events included for those with an adventurous spirit so we will be looking for your support in competing in these events. Winter is upon us so it is an ideal time to be out in the garage or workshop tinkering on your beloved vehicles ready for the summer months. Safe motoring, Willie James

AGM - 12 June 2017 A good turnout for this year’s AGM with 49 members in attendance. After the welcome from Chairman John Clark everyone stood for a short silence in memory of members who have died during the previous 12 months with John taking the opportunity to inform those of us who hadn’t heard, the sad news that Gordon Clode had passed away the previous week. John also informed us that the financial figures, as presented, were informal ones only as we are waiting for the club accountant to review them. When this is done a special AGM will be called to take place at the beginning of a normal club night to ratify them. This is expected to take only a few minutes. Notice of this will be in the Zenith. With the election of officers under way, the first item was to elect the new Chairperson, John Clark having completed the regulation 2 year tenure. Having held the position of Vice Chair for 2 years, Willie James was duly voted in as our new Chair. Myrna Lane after doing a marvellous job as Magazine Editor for the last few years had announced her resignation and there was more than a little relief to learn that we had someone keen to take over. So a big thank you to Jim Philps for taking on the most important job in the Club. Gary Lang has been our Club Captain for 5 years and ready to hand over the reins. David Hunter put his hand up (that’s me who is writing this) and got the job unopposed. I hope to perform in the position somewhere approaching Gary’s standard. At last year’s AGM we were unable to fill the position of Treasurer but then Tina Goodin came to the rescue and took on the task alongside of being Secretary. This is a big workload so now- retired Chairman, John Clark has volunteered to be Treasurer, as a short term measure, pending finding a member who wishes to take the position permanently. John Clark told us he had consulted the Branch rule book and learnt that we are allowed a maximum of 6 committee members and by coincidence that’s exactly the number of members wishing to be committee members. So, a big welcome to new comers, Brian Billings, Hugh Hunter, Earl Goodin and Andy Dittmer, who will join us at our monthly meetings. Gary Lang having relinquished the Club Captain position is continuing as a committee member as is Paul Furkert. Next on the agenda were the awards. There were three 25 year badges for Ian Lambess, Kevin Hickland and Evelyn Chisholm. Continued over page……………. 7
The Torq Hudson Trophy was shared by 3 winners: Tina and Earl Goodin and Gary Lang John, Myrna and Gary were called up front and were each presented with a small gift in appreciation of the excellent job they have done as Editor and Club Captain respectively. And that was about it. Supper was on and the new Committee Chairman and other Officers had a group photo taken for posterity. All in all, a good nights work. David Hunter (Club Captain)

Let’s get started on the Bradford! 2.00 – 5.00 pm Sunday 25th June Downstairs at the clubrooms The next meeting for the Bangers and Beer group is planned for Sunday June 25th at 2pm until 5pm, and the focus will be on the rolling chassis for our gymkhana special. The branch have been gifted a Bradford van, which seems mostly complete expect for the motor. We plan to use the chassis as the basis for the gymkhana special that we are going to try and build. The first step will be to remove the body and check out the condition of the chassis. So please come with some tools and be prepared to get your hands dirty. Come and join us even if it is only for an hour to socialise, and see what we are up to. A rough plan for the 25th is: 2pm - quick health and safety briefing 2:15 – 4.00pm - work on stripping down the chassis Rolling refreshments tea, coffee, biscuits supplied and beer (BYO) Pack up and finished by 5pm As always anyone with an interest in tinkering with old vehicles is most welcome at any Bangers and Beer session. The aim of the group is to enable VCC members to share knowledge and build friendships while tinkering with old mechanical stuff. We are still on the lookout for an engine for the gymkhana special, so if you know of anything suitable (to go in a Bradford chassis) please let David Hunter know (379 9224 or bonnydoone.4@gmail.com).
Put a ring around 30th July on your calendars for July’s Bangers and Beer Session. 9
Janice Groves Memorial Rally This year’s rally will have a new twist - the "Gravel Road Challenge". If successful, we will look to run this annually. This is a half day rally with the aim of maximising the amount of gravel roads travelled over the course of the rally route, whilst giving participants a chance to travel on some seldom traversed stretches of road. By running it in the winter hopefully there will be no dust on the gravel roads. The "challenge" is for the organiser of the rally. Their challenge is to devise a rally route which has as many gravel roads as possible, within the following constraints: Start & finish at the same location Any significant Wairarapa location Maximum length of rally: 60 miles ‘No exit’ roads can be included in the route, so long as they are over a mile in length (i.e. no short dead end roads) The organiser also needs to devise some way of determining a rally winner (questions sheet, silent checks etc). The winner of the rally will be expected to set the course for the following years "Gravel Road Challenge " (with help from committee members as required). In other words the winner will need to take up the "challenge" to try and set a rally route with even more gravel roads than this year's rally. Paul Furkert will be organising the inaugural “Gravel Road Challenge”, which will start and end at the club-rooms. More details will be in next month's newsletter.

Gordon Clode It is with a great deal of sadness that we record the recent death of Gordon Clode. Gordon and Frances have been enthusiastic members of the Wairarapa branch since 2001. Initially they drove their 1960 Ford Prefect 105E on most of the rallys and tours that the branch held. Later they “graduated” to a Hillman Estate, as it offered more power and comfort. On many of the Peter Chisholm Economy Trials that were held Gordon and Frances were there. One year the theme of the Trial, after the economy aspect, was what you were wearing when, at midnight, the cruise liner you were aboard hit a partially submerged politician. On that fateful night Gordon was watching Rugby and arrived at the “lifeboat” as a fully kitted Rugby player. 2004 saw them win the Peter Chisholm in their Ford Prefect. In 2008 Gordon and Frances won the major rally of the branch, the Rex Porter, again in their little Ford Prefect. The branch ran a couple of bingo nights and Gordon always offered to take on the job of caller. His calling made the night most entertaining and you did not really mind losing all your loose change when your numbers did not get called. Throughout the years his health was never great. He would be waiting for an operation to some portion of his anatomy but he never seemed to let the wait and the resulting pain surface. Always the gentleman, always cheerful and, in spite of his own problems never complaining. He will be missed at the branch outings. The branch , as a whole, extends its condolences to Frances and the Clode family. Tony Lane 11

WINTER WANDER – 18th June 2017 I don’t know how they did it but from the depths of Winter Tony and Myrna Lane somehow pulled out a glorious sunny and calm day for their rally. It brought forth a healthy entry too, with 20 cars in attendance at the Masterton railway station for a 10.30am start. The route was North with questions to be answered on the way. Through Kopuaranga we went, then heading West to cross the SH2 at Mt Bruce, to make our way by various roads to the finish at Pahiatua. I believe the total length was around 60 miles (I wasn’t taking note of my odometer) and including in that nearly 10 miles of gravel. The roads had very little traffic on them except for us, the gravel sections were in good repair, and except for some fog in the Mangamaire area the sun just kept on shining. Of course, there was trickery with the questions which caught out many of us. It seems we were told to read the instructions before starting (I mean, who ever bothers to do that?) but if we had, would have been able to answer the last question – how many railway lines did we cross? There was even consternation for those who had counted, with Tony declaring a bridge over a railway line also constitutes a crossing. That’s something to remember should it ever come up again. While Tony was informing us of the question answers and where we all seemed to go wrong, Tom Mitchelmore murmured to me that it was just about impossible to win one of Tony’s rallies. Tony then announced the winner – it was Tom and Jean. So that’s another theory debunked. Congratulations to them both, winning a nice prize and also getting a flying start on the quest to win next year’s Torq Hudson Trophy. The finish of the rally was also the lunch stop at The Black Stump Cafe in Pahiatua’s main street. Myrna had put a lot of effort in arranging this with the Management, with tables laid out in the dining area waiting for our arrival. Four choices of meals with cakes and pastries to go with tea and coffee afterwards and all for a very agreeable $20 a head. Afterwards we wended our way home with some stopping at the refurbished Eketahuna pub for more socialising. Now here’s something interesting; when we were on the gravel roads we knew there were cars up ahead because we could see clouds of dust. Remember, this is the Bush District in mid- winter when mud is the norm. Then, at the pub in Eketahuna, the sun was streaming in the windows and making things very warm. Sun in Eketahuna! It really was a good day. 14
So, thank you Myrna and Tony for putting in the work for an enjoyable drive and lunch. Those who took the opportunity to join in were: Les and Margaret Poole 1955 Alvis Robert and Sue Notley 1964 Daimler V8 Simon and Andrea Byrne Armstrong Siddeley Gary and Barbara Lang 1965 Mustang V8 Tom and Jean Mitchelmore 1961 Morris 1000 Barry Colquhoun 1973 Morris 1000 Pickup Peter and Chris Riddell 1936 Austin Willie and Sharon James 1956 MG Magnette Doug Curtis Chevrolet Pickup John and Sheila Clark 1955 Daimler Kevin Troy and Bev Cameron 1972 Triumph Stag Pat Dutton and Jill Kernahan 1957 Morris 1000 Barry and Linda Wells 1971Rover V8 Francis and Gaye Pointon 1934Ford V8 Brian Billing and Sharon 1935 Ford V8 David and Lynette Hunter 1967 Mustang V8 Jeff and Christine Percy 1956 Nash Rambler Ian Ingram 1973 Hillman Hunter Mary Buick and Maureen Bull Modern Kevin and Val Ball Modern Tom and Jean Mitchelmore receiving their prize from Chairman Willie James.

2017 North Island Easter Rally As part of the recent NI Easter Rally which Tony and I attended in Auckland, entrants were privileged to visit a magnificent property owned by an Auckland Branch member. After gathering for morning tea at the Auckland clubrooms on Easter Sunday we took part in a run from there to a picturesque farm near Brookby. Here we were able to view the best collection of Rolls Royce cars in New Zealand. We entered what appeared to be a stable block with a large central courtyard. In the cobbled courtyard were parked a number of pristine vehicles. When most of us were inside, the “stable “doors rolled up automatically (in unison) to reveal the contents of each “stall” immaculate Rolls Royces from every era of production. There were over 40 vehicles and they were all currently registered and warranted. A truly magnificent display.
These photos hardly do it justice! Once again we were made aware of the endless benefits we derive from belonging to the Vintage Car Club. Over the years we have had the opportunity to visit many unique and otherwise inaccessible gems that New Zealand hides. Myrna Lane 18

Dearest Dad, I am coming home to get married soon, so get your cheque book out. I'm in love with a boy who is far away from me. As you know, I am in Australia ... and he lives in Scotland. We met on a dating website, became friends on Facebook , had long chats on Whatsapp. He proposed to me on Skype, and now we've had two months of a relationship through Viber. My beloved and favorite Dad, I need your blessing, good wishes, and a really big wedding. Lots of love and thanks. Your favourite daughter, Lilly
24
THE RESPONSE My Dear Lilly, Like Wow! Really? Cool! Whatever ... I suggest you two get married on Twitter, have fun on Tango, buy your kids on Amazon, and pay for it all through PayPal. And when you get fed up with this new husband, sell him on eBay. Love, Your Dad
