NZ Classic Driver - September - October 2024

In this issue

GET SMART - It was 60 years ago when Carroll Shelby shoe-horned a Ford V8 into a Sunbeam Alpine, the first step in developing the charismatic Tiger –
the Rootes Group’s answer to the AC Cobra.

FORGOTTEN KIWI CARS - Three more home-grown roadsters – the Tron Mountach, little brother to the Trontach (a Lamborghini Countach replica); the roadster
version of the Dunedin-built Tiki and the Christchurch-based Taipan.

SEEING RED - Ferraris are red and Can-Am McLarens are supposed to be orange – but Roger Williams’ ’73 M8E/F has been black and blue, and is now red all over.
