UNVEILING EVENT
What made the fact that knowing the car was finished and waiting was that I arrived in Christchurch at 2pm but agreed not to arrive at McGregor’s until 5pm for the official un-veiling! The three hours while arduous were entirely worthwhile. Robert and Mark had the BBQ sizzling away and a curious group began to arrive for the pulling off of the car cover so I could see the finished MACH SR7. It was amusing to hear all the build stories, several of the group had seen the car but were sworn to secrecy.
Finally I was allowed to see the car which really exceeded all expectations – my usual camera at the hip ready to photograph was put down and this entire event was hardly photographed at all!
The minimal photographs of the actual evening…
Seated in the drivers seat was slightly overwhelming – more than worth a puzzled scratch of the head and allowing the enjoyment to settle into an evening long smile!
