Classic cars turn out in force

More than 100 classic cars made their way from Smales Farm in Takapuna to congregate at Warkworth Wharf, giving spectators and participants a glimpse of motoring history.

Warkworth’s second Daffodil Rally for Cancer on August 26 raised more than $2600 for cancer research, which was $600 up on last year.

Cancer Society fundraising coordinator Sue Beukink, who attended the rally, said she was thrilled with the support.

She said that the society did not get a cent of government money and was dependent on public generosity and events like the rally to continue its fight against cancer.

Winner of the people’s choice award for best car was Chris Westlake for his Mini ute. Joint second place was Ben Osborne and Keith and Di Humphries for their respective Model T Fords.
