NZV8 #235


Sep/Oct 2026

In this issue, we take a deep dive into Patrick Jenden's 1959 Chevrolet Apache 3100 built by Real Rides with a 500kW LSA under the hood, as well as DB Racecars' 1967 Ford Mustang Doorslammer that rewrote Kiwi doorslammer history. Also featured is Dylan Field's boosted 1UZ-swapped 1955 Ford Anglia 100E, Aaron Wright's dragon's breath 1972 Chevrolet Camaro that isn't afraid to light up the rears, and Matt Etchells' 1982 Ford Falcon XE that he's brought back to its former glory and then some. Flip through some more to read all about the story of Almac Cars and how the company and its cars have evolved to what they are today, an interview with the author of Thunderpark — a new book about Hawke's Bay's long-forgotten dragstrip — and all the action from Chrome Horsepower Festival 2026. Returning for issue 235 are Tony Johnson with Straight Talk, Morice McMillin with Aeroflow Race Diary, and Hayden Wilby with Burnout Files. There’s heaps more to keep you entertained, so make sure you pick up a copy before they're all gone!
