Today I got to spend the afternoon in Dunedin, New Zealand with Gary McNeill who owns this magnificent 440-6 pack, v-code, numbers matching bird, his 2nd one. There are 2 Birds on the South Island and 2 on the North Island with a rumor of 1 B5 blue one. Great guy, great car, incredible city and country. I'm the short 6'1" guy!

He also has a 1 of 1 428 Cobra Jet Mustang that is a gorgeous white shaker hood, white stripe orange as well. Nice matching colors.

Thanks Gary

For a small country, we have some pretty rare and cool cars down here  :yesnod:  :coolgleamA:
"An aggressive exterior with power to match was enough to pull in the performance boys-especially when abetted by a pair of pipes blaring out the back, and brawny red-sidewall rubber hitting the pavement."

Hi Bob

It was a great afternoon showing Jean and yourself around my home town, in the Superbird.
Thank you for making time from your busy travels and allowing me to show off the cars.

Safe travels and let's stay in touch. Hopefully, Cara and I will get the opportunity to visit in the near future.

Cheers
Gary and Cara

Nice Bird Bob!
