They say you can't beat Wellington on a good day..

[PeterTR7V8]

Got the wheels balanced & aligned ready for track day on Sunday then headed round the bays for some glamour shots.


Realised too late that I had the macro on so they are a bit blury. Anyway that's Wellington city in the background of the top photo. It might look like a farm to some Americans but it is the perfect size I reckon.


Spent the rest of the day Christmas shopping & the TR handled the traffic, the parking lots & the heat with ease. The only thing it doesn't like are the speed bumps. I came home to find some joker painting my house. That sneaky wife!!

Yup, looks good macro or no. Background kinda looks like Victoria, BC.

It is said NZ is 20 years behind the rest of the world but Before Christ?! [:D] But seriously...since we also have a big neighbour means the Kiwis & the Canadians have quite a lot in common besides topography. An appreciation of wedges is another. I lived in Buffalo for a while & even an American would appreciate that being able to escape to Canada for a weekend was about the only thing that made that time worthwhile.



Can you tell that I've never had a car this shiny before? I hope this helps motivate anyone who is in the process of a rebuild to get their car back on the road.

Cheers.
