Certainly looks like a Adamson car from New Plymouth. I think maybe from memory Peter Hjuis from Wanganui had one which he took down to the South Island, but I stand to be corrected there. Will try and locate some older pics for you. On a brighter note, if you do not have a bonnet for the car, I have the moulds for them which I bought from the Adamson Family, so can get one made for you so you can return it to original specs. Good buying there whatever the case. How about the really old chassis in the background, is it a replica or the real deal, that is also great to have
Cheers Billy

The un numbered car was owned by Robin Bloomfield in Nelson. Had a GS Suzuki in it then. I ran it for a few meetings to keep numbers up around 2003-04 season.
