hi Dusty
I'm aware of the existence of trucks in Canterbury. A year ago I bought all I could carry from a guy in Christchurch who was rodding one, all he wanted was the cab. Shame for the truck but good for me.
Your truck looks excellent. Mine is Canadian, as they all were in NZ. i am in long term negotiation with the wife- I want the original green, she wants something fancy.
Eventually I will get a 235 and 5 speed, to make it most practical. Although a blue or black Holden 202 is also possible.
cheers
