Heads certainly turned at the ICA Rally when our friends Owen and Helen arrived in their shiny black car. Although Pauanui was a little off the beaten track on their way to Whangamata, they decided to call in for a visit.
The pair are justifiably proud of their Ford Zephyr Zodiac Mark 111, and knowing Owen, he keeps it in tip top condition.
Being very thoughtful guests, they had packed a lunch to bring with them. So together with Bill and Val, we had a picnic lunch inside our van, chatting around the table and putting the world to rights, as we do - there always seems to be a lit to talk about.
Helen and Owen are taking part in the Repco Beach Hop, based in the Coromandel beach resort town of Whangamata, which once a year comes to life to the sound of Rock and Roll music and V8 Engines! According to the advertising, Repco Beach Hop is New Zealand’s number 1 Nostalgia Festival that celebrates the best of the 50’s & 60’s - Rock and Roll, Hot Rods, Classic Cars and Motorbikes, and this year the festival is celebrating it's 20th anniversary. They are sure to have a great time!
