Classics on parade in Mangawhai

Bryan May with his  2SS RS Camaro – one of only a handful imported to New Zealand. The car will likely be among those featured at the Custom & Classic Car/Bike Extravaganza

Mangawhai Domain will host the inaugural Custom & Classic Car/Bike Extravaganza on Easter Sunday, April 4.

More than 300 vehicles are expected at the event, which is being put on by the Mangawhai Golf Club, in association with the Mangawhai Domain Society and the Mangawhai Muscle and Classic Car Club.

Visitors will see modern classics such as Camaros, Corvettes, Mustangs and Challengers, plus earlier versions of the same marques. They will be joined by classic motorcycles, hot rods built from scratch and vintage cars, including a few Model T Fords.

Organiser Bryan May says there will be some amazing vehicles and even those with only a modest interest in cars will be overwhelmed.

In addition to the cars and bikes, there will be entertainment, food stalls, knick-knack stalls and a fashion show featuring clothes from the 50s and 60s.

Those wishing to showcase their own vehicle should email Bill Mabey, bill@mangawhaigolf.co.nz.
