I will always remember being told the story of a mates dad (the one that dozed in Takapari road) went off to Masterton to buy a brand new Suzuki Jimney. The early 2 stroke one. He already had an A frame ready for it, paid the money, connected the A frame up to his Range Rover (the early 1970's baby poo yellow one) and headed back North. After half an hour he was out on those long straights and opened her up, to his usual 75mph travelling speed. Glanced in the rearvision mirror and nearly shat himself as all he could see was a Suzuki Jimney hard up his arse wanting to overtake him.
It took him a few seconds to remember he was A framing it![]()
