OK, there were I think about 200 classic trucks by the time we got to Invercargill (Picton icon_arrow.gif West Coast icon_arrow.gif Invercargill for the opening of a massive truck Museum icon_arrow.gif East Coast icon_arrow.gif Picton). Any questions just ask.
When we arrived in Picton. From left icon_arrow.gif right Kenworth, Vic's Leyland Beaver, Tauranga Leyland Hippo, Our Octopus, Vic's Hippo, Mike's Beaver.

Two Awesome Hippo's

Another fav of mine, Old International:

On the Takaka Hill:

The back

The front (Cab yet to be restored- almost everything else done)

Vic's Incredible Leyland Hippo. In excess of $150,000 spent on this. (I was lucky enough to get a ride in both his trucks)

Vic's Beaver Again

A nice Mack B from Motueka (got a ride in it tongue.gif )


erm Group photo?

Merc, Leyland and Kenworth from Pahiatua.(Got a ride in the KW and the Merc too)

drool.gif Kenworth:

Octopus at the base of the Haast pass. No heater + holes in cab + southland morning at 7am= COLD.

Hawea for Lunch.


Lucky me tongue.gif


Found this at Wanaka:

The next day travelling from Cromwell icon_arrow.gif Invercargill

At some farm in a place I can't remember where:

Someone hired HOT to film us in convoy:

About 1/10th of us

Taken from the orange Merc

Bugger these poofs with electric cars..

HOT again

Hunting in the mighty KW.

In.. um.. Gorre..

We made it to Invers:



Part 2 coming soon!
