Finally getting my 69
After purchasing my new vette back in Feb 15th, 3 months waiting on a C.A shop to get my wiper motor parts $1500usd worth of wiper parts and labour, my car is to arrive in port this weekend!
Now for New Zealand road compliance so it can be regestered her, fingers crossed its all good.
Will make the journey up country 400km tools in hand and hopefully drive my new vette home

I think when your butt contacts the driver's seat the excitement will return. You may even forget to breath.
I visited New Zealand 10 years ago and I think it would be the perfect place to drive a Vette except for one very big problem---everybody drives on the wrong side of the road. It's just down right confusing and dangerous. I forget to breath--at least at first.
I hope you love the car and good luck.

Thanks for the kind words.
I lived in New Jersey for a bit, driving was interesting to start with, especially on a bike with un marked back roads.
Its crazy, everyone should drive on the same side, then we can have late model American cars with out the horrific cost of conversion !
I had a 1970 vette few years ago, always regretted selling, this one I hope to be a keeper
