Automobiles are not ferocious.... it is man who is to be feared. - Robbins B. Stoeckel

The Corolla was fuelled up, a little Sunday drive was in order. The Phresh and Phruity team, along with Conan, were en route to Southwards Car Museum. A smidge north of Paraparaumu, this museum is the creation of some old guy, who bought a bunch of cars, restored some, and decided to let young jokers like ourselves come and potter round and check them out.

The photo's below are a small selection of the photo's taken, and are mainly of the 1970-1980's cars, as apposed to the large selection of cars from as far back as 1895!



As a driver for Wellington  Free Ambulane, Milk was most stoked to see this old Bedford Ambo, even going as far as climbing under the ropes to get a photo of the emblem adorning the side.



Anyone else never heard of a Suzuki CV-1 before now?



This Civic was one of my favourites of the day, so tiny and compact, and in pretty good nick too!



A KE model Corolla, without Modgies, Rotary, Dumpy? Phresh and Phruity approve. Mint apart from a slightly different coloured drivers door..



Mercedes Limo. Riding in style!

All in all a good day spent, and cheap entertainment too at only 12 buck entry fee each! A huge range of vehicles, tons of motorbikes, cars obviously and even a plane! Don't expect to visit and not leave pining over something vintage!

Word, Phresh(Loki)
