The Modified class was created at Rotorua, and the idea was to replicate a USA East Coast type car, not the up right sprint car style we have ended up with. Anyway, here is something that is always worth seeing, one of the original Rotorua cars, the ex Ross Baker car (as seen at the top of he page) restored in Christchurch as Myles Forsey ran it at Woodford Glen. Photo from KevtheRev. Sorry Wog, I missed your cool post.

Either back through this thread, or in the other Old Modified thread you will find some of those cars. I guess the Aussie car really comes under old sprintcars in terms of modified origins. The cars we are discussing here started out in Rotorua in 1977ish. Maybe we need to gather some photos of the 'other' pre sprintcar mods for a thread.

1990/91 The 44 car of Wayne Rudolph became the 2nz of Tony Frost when Berty won the deal here in Nelson the following season.It was the ex Moro deal before that. Tony then went onto bigger and better things in the pink 4s of the master himself Mr Gordge. Interesting to note that Wayne Rudolph was related to our own TQ 2nz(x4 in a row!!!!- Ricky Rudolph)
