The Falcon GT dominates the cover of the latest issue of New Zealand Classic Car (#342) much as its GTHO siblings did at Bathurst from 67-72.

Also in this issue a beautiful Bora, a pristine Porsche 356 Type 1 that’s so much part of the family it lives in the lounge, and a Plymouth Road Runner that occasionally gets to flex its muscles at the drags.

Michael Clark moves onto the coffee in the second part of his Lunch With Graeme Lawrence, we look at a stately and stylish 41 Caddy , with an engine that literally pushed tanks around in the Second World War and, in our technical feature, we look at how to avoid heartache when prepping your car for painting.

Morris’ ground-breaking, world-beating, Minor
It was Britain’s biggest small car, and it got Britain mobile again.       Morris Motors celebrated its millionth Minor in December 1960, a car that defined the British motor industry, and was in production for 10 years alongside the iconic Mini of 1959.
Whakatane dentist John Twaddle has a passion for Morris Minors going back to 1982, and he still has his first example. There are now three ‘Morries’ in his garage. One, however, is quite special, a rare ‘Minor-Million’. 
One of just 350 made commemorating the millionth Morris Minor produced, the first British car to hit a million units, the well-rounded little Brit’ would end production in 1971with a tally of over 1.6 million units.
John finished his Minor Million six years ago, resplendent in lilac, its official factory colour. He calls it his ‘Minor Resurrection’, and it has won numerous awards.
This summer edition also comes with our annual FREE classic car calendar, a must for every garage wall.
Every issue comes with our FREE huge wall poster; this issue, our poster is of a couple of garage mates, a 1957 Ford Ranchero and a 1968 Lincoln Continental.
