It’s been sneaking up in our calendar with much anticipation, and now it’s drawing so close we can almost taste it. The New Zealand Classic Car Show 2016 is all set to fill the Ellerslie Racecourse with an abundance of beautiful vehicles for you to gaze at longingly from 10am until 4pm on Sunday, February 14. Befittingly to us classic car enthusiasts, this year’s event has the theme of ‘a classic love story’. Check out the programme for this year’s event below — and make sure you remember Valentine’s Day so that you’re not stuck in the dog box for the duration of the event. It’s definitely one not to miss!

The Shelby came to our shores in 2003. It went from the original New Zealand owner to an owner in Auckland. Malcolm just happened to be in the right place with the right amount of money in 2018 and a deal was done. Since then, plenty of people have tried to buy it off him. The odometer reads 92,300 miles. From the condition of the car that seems to be correct and only the first time around.
Malcolm’s car is an automatic. It has the 1966 dashboard, the back seat, the rear quarter windows and the scoops funnelling air to the rear brakes.
He even has the original bill of sale from October 1965 in California.
