Rock ‘n’ roll doesn’t die – it doesn’t even slow down – as Dave and Iris Sutcliffe demonstrated on the closed main street of Thames today.
The Thames couple are members of Valley Rockers and were among those rockabilly-strolling to the 1950s live music while every imaginable style and colour of hot rod, muscle car and street machine parked up for the crowds.
Repco Beach Hop 2022 hit the accelerator at a Waihi Warmup Party yesterday and a convoy of classic cars headed over the Kopu-Hikuai hills to Thames for the Power Cruise today.
Locals Dave (86) and Iris (80) weren’t dressed to impress but had the moves, baby.
“We’ve been dancing for 62 years,” shouted Dave over a loud rendition of the 1967 classic Ten Guitars before the beat overcame him and he whisked Iris off for another whirl.
Joining them were Hawke’s Bay couples Carol and John Harwood, and Colleen and Brian Pascoe, who were dressed to impress and had the moves to match.
They fill their classic car every year with a different themed costume for every day of the festival, which runs until Sunday, in Whangamatā.
