Joint Adventure

Recently via Chairman Rob Chapman Keith and I were invited to visit, along with the Vincent Owners Motorcycle Club, Buckley Systems in Penrose. Why on earth would we want to go there you may ask!?

Well firstly, in a previous life, I rode many miles on the pillion seat of a Vincent Comet and as I still believe a Vincent is the BEST motorcycle in the world, I was keen to hopefully catch up with some of the Vincent team from way back AND Bill Buckley was part of that team.

You may know Bill Buckley from his years of being the leading light of Western Springs Speedway where at one time, for reasons unknown now, I and then husband Neil Barnard were “pushers”. Who we were pushers for?? Don’t know, can’t remember! But it was loud and fun! I do remember that!

This was one of the most mind-blowing visits we’ve ever made. The size of this business is simply so large it’s hard to take in. Buckley Systems occupies all the factory buildings apart from one, on one side of Bowden Rd. and has another factory across the road on the opposite side. Bill is currently in negotiations to purchase another factory that is at the end of Bowden Rd. where it turns around the corner. The street should be renamed “Buckley Road”

To see such enormous blocks of steel and aluminium machined into complex shapes and square section hollow copper tubes, insulated and wrapped into enormous coils of peculiar shapes, is almost incomprehensible as to how it is accomplished?

Bill Buckley, in my previous life, was mad enough to ride his motorcycle, along with a few others I might add, through a bonfire at the annual Cold Kiwi mid-winter motorcycle rally held in the Army camp site near Waiouru, is the genius behind this business which supplies precision electro magnets world-wide for vacuum chambers and accelerator systems.

Buckley Systems have also invented a cure for cancer tumours which have proven 100% successful in trials in three countries so far. It is so radical that a businessman in Japan who owns 72 hospitals, wants 72 of these machines. And he wants them yesterday!! It is noninvasive, and if I understand the technology at all, it involves attaching Boron to the cancer cells and then exploding them with this device which can remove all cancerous cells in 20 minutes.

The company is just waiting for FDA approval!

Many of the ‘cutting’ machines throughout the Buckley Systems factories are made in Japan but to get them built to how Bill wanted them to work forced him to basically part own the cutting machines factory. This enabled Bill to have a large chunk of control so he ended up with the cutting machines working how he wanted them to work. Many of the machines are 'one-offs’ Built to do a specific job. Almost all the cutting machines we saw in action had glass fronts so you could watch the cutters at work.... fascinating.... truly!

Bill has a large family and his sons, daughters, grandsons and some cousins work in the Buckley Systems complex. Along with the family members Buckley Systems employ in total six hundred and fifty workers and overtime is readily available and one could work seven days a week if one wanted to. Bill's Speedway motorcycles, including his motorcycle and side chair rig, his many trophies and many awards, are all on display in the large workers lunchroom. Over the years Buckley Systems Ltd has received many awards. 1998 NZ Trade Exporter of the Year, 2013 - Bill Buckley awarded New Zealand Order of Merit, 2020 Innovator of the Year, to name just a few.

I'm still trying to get my head around the fact that “Mad Bill Buckley” of motorcycle fame is the genius behind this business. His innovation to build machines or adapt old machines to work how he wants them to work is absolutely mind blowing. Such a clever bugger!!

Chairmans Report.

Well, the R'oil Can is a month away. There may be a couple of vacancies left so if you are thinking get your entry now. An apology a couple of people who asked to be included in the visit to Buckley Systems. I acknowledge I stuffed up and did not include you on the list. I simply forgot for whatever reason. So sorry. Some of you are following the saga of the Riley and the fire. Well, progress Macs' Garage has completed the rewiring as usual I am very happy with Ryans' work. Vero knowing that upholstery for the drivers foot well was needed after the rewire. The car was then taken to the nominated upholstery shop only to be told to stop work by Vero. It is bespoke work so not available with replacement carpet and side panels. However this emphasises the need for a dedicated person at Vero we can speak to with regard to our Vintage Cars. To be fair the insurance assessor has been very good and helpful. So again, watch this space. Rob

Editor

Being inundated with printed material is part of the pleasures of the position of editorship. The deluge of material is an antidote to that insidious condition of ‘Doom Scrolling’.

Amongst the material reviewed has been a lot of references to the Branch members and cars, both past and present. In an issue of The Bulletin of the Vintage Sports-Car Club was a current picture of the 1913 Sunbeam 12/16 that Wallace McNair did use for a lot of trips. He did complain of getting a ticket for speeding in it down country. One of the latest issues of The Automobile featured a Hispano-Suiza I remember it when owned by Mark Jennings when he was an early member of the North Shore Branch in the mid 1970’s and its yellow body. After he passed away, the car went overseas in 2018. Looks magnificent now. There are many mentions of young Lois McNair, his skills and vehicles in correspondence of several clubs and newsletters.

The Long Way Home: Part Two

A road trip into the past with Ian and Jacqui Goldingham

As intimated last time my 1927 Lea Francis spent most of its early life down in the South Island. Fortunately, when I bought the car from Mr W J Hearne way back in December 1972, soon after, I had a new job with the start of South Pacific Television. This meant I was based in Christchurch, so it was only natural that whilst the car stayed in storage back in Auckland, I could at least do some on the research on the mainland, re the car’s previous life and owners. The end result of these efforts meant by the time I returned home several years later, I had made contact with just about every known previous owner and or their families on what the ownership papers. Of course, I promised them all, that at some time in the future I would bring the car to the South Island and show them the finished restoration! Well, I do like to keep my promises even if it’s a classic case of better late than never! So, a strong under lying reason for taking the M type down to Nelson for the Vero International Festival of Motoring Rally was to effectively do a post event “Reunion Ramble” down memory lane. What was extraordinary, that in just about every case I was dealing with the children of the original owners and even then, most of them were older than me by a reasonable margin!

Whilst this large loop round the South Island was all carefully planned, it did mean that we had to catch up with people literally in the order, of going down the road, that I found them. So, I apologise if the following saga is a bit disjointed, but I will do my best to put each visitation into the context of the Lea Francis’s history.

The first person on our list was Wayne Logan, son of Halsey Logan the well-known local Motor Dealer and racing driver. It was Halsey who in had bought the newly created version of the Lea Francis from the Coombes Brothers in Christchurch, speculating that if he had it sitting in his showrooms in Hardy St, it would be a hot seller! Halsey wasn’t wrong in that assessment, as over the next five years he was able to buy back and then resell the Lea Francis on at least four occasions! Wayne kindly allowed us to look through his family’s photo album and select a number of uniquely pertinent images from Nelson motorsport days in the early 1950’s

Next on the list was Jenny Baumfield, whose father Ted in 1950 had bought the Lea Francis from Halsley Logan after it had been traded in. Halsley had stripped it of its supercharger, then fitted a two port Meadows head from a Frazer Nash had come to grief! According to Ted this only made the M type three times harder to start! Jenny has followed her father’s passion for motorsports being an active member of the Nelson Motorcycle club and successfully writing an extensive selfpublished book for their 50-year anniversary.

A day or so later we caught up with Margaret Clayworth whose husband Henry had co-owned the Lea Francis with a couple of other local lads with idea of taking the Lea Francis racing at Tahunanui Beach. Unfortunately, they over blew the engine with an Alfa Romeo supercharger in preparation before the event and never got to the start line! Henry then quite rightly turned his attention to Margi and the rest is history. I almost missed finding out about Henry because on the ownership papers his given name was Ian! Fortunately, John and Michael Stanley had known him when they lived in Nelson and were thankfully able to put me in contact with Margi before it was too late.

The Nelson Branch’s Vero Rally organising committee and their team planned an absolutely brilliant rally offering 17 themed ‘routes’ over the week. It was a week of choice, offering something for all entrants, regardless of the age of their car or the driver. The Tasman District, has many quiet undulating back roads, so we were pleasantly surprised to find many roads that were new to us. Each day offered a variety of terrain and road surfaces, wonderful views and great weather. Excellent driving for a sports car. Routes were themed; Coastal Cruising, Valleys and Rivers, Museum Meanders and Lake runs were all available for our choosing and timetable.

Tony Reid & Sandra Frame had journeyed north from Christchurch. This Vero event was the first time in years of 40 years ownership and friendship that Ian and Tony had been able to park the two LeaF’s side by side. There is only a 25-year difference between both these Lea Francis models, pre-war and post-war builds. Both LeaF’s proved very reliable, attracting the public’s attention at the many community display events. This was something very well arranged by the organisers, as each picnic lunch stop attracted interested locals and school children to view the diverse range of vehicles.

A highlight for our Lea Francis foursome, was visiting the Nelson Classic Car Museum, occupying the original Nelson Motor Vehicle Assembly Plant, where post-war Leyland, Triumph and the like were originally built from CKD kits. On display in this museum, is a wonderful collection of 150 veteran, vintage and classic cars, including a 1953 Lea Francis 14/70 Light Saloon. This car was originally purchased new by Hotel Nelson, in preparation of a visit by Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth II in January 1954. I had called through to the Nelson Motor Museum, a month prior on the hope we could organise a Lea Francis trifecta as my M type and the Museum’s car had both been owned by Mr Wally Fletcher in Christchurch. Tony car is of course the only other Post War 2.5 litre Lea Francis in the country. Unfortunately, the Museum was not prepared to arrange this. Maybe at another time when they are not open to the Vero Festival of Motoring’s 1,194 participants taking advantage of free museum entry? For Kiwi Lea Francis fans, it would have been a rare chance indeed, three Lea Francis able to be viewed on one site, in one city.

Saturday’s Public Day was a non-event for the M type when upon start up that morning I discovered the front SU carb had an unstoppable leak due to a terminal case of crumbling muzak (die cast ally). If we going to get home, I had to something desperate and that involved a delicate upside-down repair of the carb body with good old JB Weld everything carefully positioned and balanced for 8 hours whilst it all set and cured to a level that it could be worked on. We made the final dinner and presentations that night happy that the car was back on track.

Come Sunday morning, all the chaos of the Rally was over and the repair to the front carburettor seemed to have been successful to the extent that I was prepared to risk carrying on with our scheduled tour of the South Island. So, it was back up into the hills as we made our way over to the West Coast via Murchison. A quick afternoon cup of tea with our old friends, the Stanleys at Westport proper and then on out to our glamorous overnight stop at Cape Foulwind. This was a spectacular boutique cabin called the hole in the rock, situated on the cliff edge directly above a cove of the same name! The wild untamed rock formations and supercharged ozone seascape were stunning We also had on tap the Star Tavern, a good local pub that was within walking distance, directly across from us on the headland reserve.

Next morning there was the obligtory toddle out to the track to Cape Foulwind Lighthouse. Jacqui went for a power walk and I was accosted by a bus load of overseas students and a couple of inquisitive Wekas, who according to the local tour guide were really Short Billed Kiwis! We pressed on, via a scenic short cut across to SH 6 and on down to Punakaiki, past the tourist trap of the Rocks and an early beachside lunch at the Oceanview Restrauant. Once again we had the place to ourselves, this has to be the best time of the year to visit Te Waipounamu.

After lunch there was just enough time for a quick sprint down the coast to Runanga to meet up with various members of the Gray family. Morris Gray had owned the M type between doing a swap for an Auburn that he owned at the time. He effectively pulled the car apart to restore it and never really got round to it! I had over the years been in contact with Morris, as he had the same stall at the Canterbury Swap Meet where we would regularly catch up. Unfortunately he passed away a few years back and never got to see his old car back at home.

The M type arrived in Runanga 1964, after being trailered from Christchurch by Morris Luckily I had managed to track down Morris’s daughter, Bronwyn who turned out to be the local NZPO contractor. She very quickly rounded up the few surviving members of the family and had them meet us outside the family’s old home at 9 Kilmore Street. The visit certainly livene d up the small local community for a few hours with plenty of questions and reminiscences. I discovered that the very wet horizontal coal mine shaft that the Lea Francis had be stored in for a number of years, was in fact 5 kms away up Springhill Creek Road and not just across the railway tracks, from Morris’s home as I had always been told!

By mid-afternoon we had to say our goodbyes and head down to Greymouth to refuel before the last leg of the day. The price of 91 was still going up especially at the outer reaches of the supply chain! Fresh whitebait fritters were also near non-existent, so we compensated by diverting to Serpentine Beach for a quick rock hunt along the booming surf line. After an hour or so Jacqui came back with enough ballast to keep her happy!

Then it was time to turn inland and head Eastwards up to and over to Arthurs Pass. The weather was perfect. The road largely unpopulated and the rain forest to alpine scenery was wound up to 120%! Right at the top of the Pass, just after the new viaduct we encountered a large Mainland Freight trucker who had royally muffed his gear changes! Of course, it had to be on the last mile short of the summit, nowhere to pull off or overtake and he was down to 0.2 mph! I went down to first and was forced to ride the clutch for a full 10 minutes while Jacqui took up a rearwards emergency signalling position wildly waving a Fluro Jacket! Fortunately, nobody came barrelling up the pass attempting a hill climb record and we survived a very hairy experience to say the least! Soon after we were down in the quiet of the valley and settled into our overnight accommodation at Arthur’s Pass Village. Later that evening we had a delightful 10 km “magic hour” drive down to The Bealey Hotel for dinner. Sadly, this once premier establishment has lost its lustre of late and is now rather ordinary. However, on the way back we were treated to a delightful dusky alpine sunset to drive beneath

NZ Motor & Cycle Journal Update.

In the middle of last month, a small ceremony was held at the Auckland Branch clubrooms to mark the end of the nuts-and-bolts part of the New Zealand Motor Journal project. The final two bound volumes that had be unearthed in the technical section of the Automobile Association offices had been graciously donated to VCCNZ. Finally, after been digitised by the National Library these were returned to us and it was universally agreed that they should be donated on to the Auckland Public Library, so they could rejoin the rest of the original bound collection already in residence there. Auckland branch kindly played host and put on an excellent morning tea, after which I gave a small talk explaining the beginning s of the project way back in the 1970’s with the research done by the Late Dick Messenger and after him Doug Wood, the result being the book “Flat to the Boards.” Early in the Millenium, Michael Curry on behalf of the Veteran Car Club of New Zealand went round NZ photocopying as many Veteran copies of the Journal for inclusion onto a CD-ROM. After that Barry Roberts took up the task and finally managed to get the bulk of the AA collection transferred to the Auckland City Library. So, when I started the Papers Past part of the exercise, I was literally standing on and spring boarding from the work of past and current members of the VCC.

The last two bound journals were presented to Andrew Henry and Keith Giles from the Auckland City Library. Also, present was Hayley Twort communications Specialist from the AA Auckland Head Office.

Afterwards Barry Birchall was delighted to show our guests the extent and depth of the Auckland Branch Library and received a number of professional compliments as to the quality of work achieved by the volunteer Library team.

We have also just had an updated communication from Charlotte McGillen at the National Library to say that the first block (1905 to 1915) of the New Zealand Motor & Cycle Journal will be online and fully searchable as of Wednesday 8th July.

The link will be: https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/periodicals/nz-motor-cyclejournal

Please note the other two blocks will come on line in consecutive segments in 2027 and finally 2028.

GOOD NEWS for those needing replacement RADIATORS

Original Honeycomb Radiators still made the old way in a Modern Factory here in NZ.

Industrial Radiators in Christchurch are still producing authentic honeycomb Radiators cores using original film-type manufacturing equipment that’s been in service for close to a century. The equipment was restored in 2009 by Greg Stevens in Australia. Purchased by Industrial Radiators in 2025, is now in full production.

In Dec 2025 Industrial Radiators 2010 Ltd, in Christchurch New Zealand, purchased the Vintage Honeycomb Radiator Company from Greg and Christine Stevens in Brisbane and brought the machinery and business to Christchurch, NZ. Greg Stevens who has restored the machinery and mastered the techniques required for making Vintage Honeycomb Radiators negotiated the purchase of this very early authentic film-type honeycomb core manufacturing machinery from a long standing and now closed business in Sydney. This machinery has a known history dating back to Johnson Brothers in Parramatta Road, Ashfield, Sydney.

A Honeycomb Radiator History FACT:

Herbert Harrison invented the honeycomb radiator in 1910, and founded Harrison Radiators. Vintage Honeycomb Radiator Company cores are similar to Harrison's in looks, yet outperform Harrison Cores, and are cleanable.

After more than 18 months of restoring this well-worn vintage machinery, and with a combination of research, improved tooling and testing, the core has now been re-designed. This allows a core made with 0.15 mm copper to be run as a serviceable core, superior in design and endurance to the 0.11 mm copper used previously. This new core has been wind tunnel tested, and we are happy to be making a core more efficient than what we have imported and fitted in the past. We already knew the performance of the imported core, and this new VHRC core is better!

HRC offers cores in a range of 7 different thicknesses: 2, 2¼, 2½, 2¾, 3, 3½ and 4 inches.

Why serviceable? If you are going to spend good money on a honeycomb radiator, why not ensure it is serviceable in 20+ years?

Looking forward to the future with "authentic machinery, new tooling, new cores and a new attitude!"
