Default Shows meets in New Zealand Jan 2014

Hello everyone
My wife and I are going to see the grandkids near Wellington NZ in January 2014 and I would like to know if there are any MV shows/displays/meets in the month of January.
We will be arriving on the 11th and leaving on the 28-29 Jan. We would also like to meet fellow collectors and look at some vehicles. If I read right in the vehicle posts, I believe there is a gentleman who is restoring a M548 and he lives near Wellington, I would really love to see this vehicle. My wife also collects, she owns an ambulance and a jeep. She goes to more shows than I do.
Our arrangment, keep my vehicles running and I will let you buy and restore more vehicles.
Also if you need a part(small) I would be happy to bring it.
Thank you

Gilles & Carolle

Shame it's only on every 2nd "Odd" years, but the Masterton Airshow would hve been right in your date range.

Perhaps contact the NZMVCC to see what's happening during the time of your visit (their site is somewhat "information poor"). The Manawatu Branch is the one covering the Wellington area.

Gilles, I will flick an email through to Rob Beale. He is not in the Wellington area. but he is the president of the New Zealand Military Vehicle Collectors Club and a some times visitor here.

Hi Gilles, Robin is very busy trying to get a "Marines at Mahia" event together.
He will be in touch.
