Tickets went on sale for the NZHRA Hot Rod Lottery last week, but we now have more info on the prize car and how you can enter.

Due to a large response received during the last Lottery, ticket numbers this year, have been increased to 30,000. The prize? A stunning 1926 Ford Roadster.

The Roadster has a 350 Chev engine with Ford 9 inch diff, 350 Turbo transmission, and tube axle front end with white satin interior finish. It is not just the Roadster up for grabs either, with the car will be a new set of mags from BGWorld Wheels, Mothers High Performance Car Care products have added boxes of product to keep the car in show condition and Classic Cover Insurance Limited are offering a year’s free cover.

Tickets are available for purchase through NZHRA Clubs and there is a full listing on where you can get your $6 ticket from here at the NZHRA website.  The Roadster can be seen on the 25th September at the Tararua Rodders Show n Shine in Levin and at the National Hot Rod Show in Hawera on the 15th -16th October – tickets will also be available on site at both venues.

Ticket Sales close on the 10th November 2011 and the winner will be drawn at the Castrol Edge and Classic Cover Insurance Limited NZHRA 50th Anniversary Dinner in Wellington on the 19th of November 2011. The winner will be phoned when the winning ticket is drawn and results will be published in The New Zealand Herald, The Dominion Post and The Southland Times on 23rd November 2011.

In 2009, 20,000 tickets for a 1930 Model A Roadster were sold for the Century Yuasa 2009 NZHRA Hot Rod Lottery and the winning ticket went to Dale Ross from Manukau Rod & Custom Club.
