Hi Don
I live in Perth, West Australia and have owned 97 Cerbera 4.2 from 2001-2005 and have cute tangerine 1971 blown Vixen still.
We are touring NZ 30 Dec to 18 Jan north to south. do you know any car events on or things I should see or visit or do whilst there? Car museums/displays/hillclimbs etc.
Have you finished the Cerb? Would love to see it and the engine bay if you have and hear about the conversion.
Hope to hear from you.

Hi Nick,
I'm not sure about events but the Southwards car museum in Paraparaumu (just north of Wellington) is well worth a visit, Te Papa is the national museum of New Zealand in Wellington and they have Nick Britton's world beating superbike on permanent display there - worth a visit for that alone but the whole place really is a must see. There's a thread here about the best NZ roads - have a look through that for what you can build into your own itinerary.
Unfortunately I'm away overseas all of the time you're here. The Cerb isn't anywhere near finished basically due to lack of time/focus but will soon be making progress as I've handed it over to a local kit car builder to move it forward. Enjoy your trip around!
