Something very differant
Flash-back
I have been working on this project for several years and finally finish.
Its a 1983 Holden Commodore NZ Police car. (Some may remember them for differant reasons) but its certainly a head turner.
I was ten years old when these roamed the streets of NZ.

Under the Tunnel
The Northern Motorway from the Orewa turnoff to Puhoi,
bypassing the seaside townships of Orewa, Hatfield's Beach,
Waiwera and the Wenderholm Regional Park.
The Johnstone’s Hill Twin Tunnels are 15 metres apart, 380 metres long,
12 metres wide and 9 metres high. They are built to carry two lanes each.
OREWA (North of Auckland)
The Orewa – Puhoi area has a long history of human settlement and has been occupied since the first period of Maori settlement that took place approximately 800 years ago. Most settlements were around the Wenderholm Regional Park and Waiwera areas. Orewa was used as a base for fishing and gathering shellfish but it is believed there were no permanent settlements on the flats.
European settlement began on the 29th June 1863 when 83 young immigrants arrived at Puhoi from Staab, Bohemia (present day Czech Republic) with the promise of a 40-acre land grant for each adult and a 20-acre grant for each child over five years old. Life for the settlers was difficult; the initial ‘settlement’ at Puhoi consisted of two nikau huts surrounded by dense bush.
Development in the area accelerated in the 1920’s when speculators began subdividing land at the southern end of Orewa for holiday homes. Advertisements for the sale of land highlighted the “resort feel” and beach environment of Orewa.
