Was always my favourite car when Auckland used to invade Meeanee way back when during the days of Meeanee's Easter Meetings always being the last ones held in NZ each season? |

I've had a few over the years. The first one that really attracted my attention was Peter's Howarth's EH (I think it was) Holden at Waikaraka Park the night it debuted. Looking like it had just been driven off the sales lot, competing against what the memory now tells me looked more like a bunch of Streetstocks (which didn't even exist at the time).

I don't have access to my photos, but I always liked the Brian Musgrove 1W Kuriger Superstock in "the year of the stepped wing" (1987/88?)
