I(s)OTW no.646

By September 26, 2022IOTW

Hawkes Bay in New Zealand is best known for its wine and magnificent coastal scenery. Back at the end of July 1987 the local vintage car community were celebrating the return to competition of 80 year-old Bart O’Rouke. The Hawkes Bay Car Club arranged a special sprint event to mark their 40th anniversary and Bart ( a founder club member) got to drive the car in which he first competed back in the 1950’s. His 1931 Morris Minor Coachbuilt Saloon (M24532) had been sold to NZ Minor enthusiast Neville Wilson three years earlier, and he was very happy to permit Bart to be reunited with his old saloon for that special occasion.
