My car was imported into New Zealand from Washington in July 2003.
Her previous owner called her “Pinky”, and as my nickname is “Binky”, the name has stuck.
I managed to get the numberplate “BINK” which combines us both!
She is a car that gets a lot of use.
To date Pinky has been involved in a “Think Pink” campaign to raise funds for breast cancer research.
She has been the star in an Elvis Memorial Cruise on 16th August, and collected a trophy for the top 10 cars at tha NZ NSRA Nationals in October.

Pinky has attended car displays, raising funds for various causes, as well as transporting friends and family to events.
She is booked to carry brides to their weddings in the future, as well as being the venue for my “PINKY PARTIES”. ( cruising with a bunch of fun people, listening to cool music and consuming pink wine, pink food and pink cocktails )
She has also been chosen as the car that’s the “best of the ’60’s” in a local event called
“100 Years of Motoring in the Bay of Plenty” – to be held in December.

A very full life, and lots of fun!
