Was the car imported built up as a race car or done in NZ and by who.
I brought the car as a semi rolling car from Henry Hammond


What I have seen somewhere was that there were 3 std twin cam road car imported new in 1968 by Ford NZ. Did Ron Rutherford get one of the 3 new twin cams. May have this wrong?????? Peter Bryan.

The three Twin Cams brought in for motorsport purposes were the Jim Carney car, The Ward / Simpson car, Tony Batchelor / Gary Sprague car.

I think that there was a 4th one brought in shortly after and it may have been for Ron Rutherford
