between Tokoroa and Putaruru on Tuesday I was over taken by first a porsche and then a mustang shelbie LOTS of $$$$$ there.

As young fellow I used to look at these old buggers driving dream speed machines and thought what a Waste.
Now I'm older myself - comfort economy & reliability are more attractive. Oh well can still wear my Cap backwards as I set the cruise control.

A few of my old ones, pretty much retired now, too old and valuable to shoot to death.... from the top.

577 Volunteer - 1859 - Young Glasgow
Snider Short Rifle - 1881
Civilian Snider- Wilkinson (of the Wilkinson sword family)
Percussion - Rigby
Yeomanry Carbine -1847
Westley Richard - Monkey Tail - 1888
Padget Carbine
