The featured image above and photos the below were sent to me by Nick McQuoid and show the Futuro that was in storage in Australia formany years in a disassembled state on its arrival back in New Zealand.
The images below, also from Nick McQuoid show the Kaimaumau Futuro as it was on site and as it appeared during disassembly. For more images of these two Futuros prior to their arrival in Rangiora please see the archived pages on the Kaimaumau Futuro and the Futuro recently purchased by Nick. |
In mid 2012 after searching for some time Nick McQuoid purchased the Kaimaumau Futuro. In 2013 Nick found a second Futuro in storage in Australia and purchased that one and shipped it back to new Zealand [this was the unit displayed at the 1974 Commonwealth Games in Christchurch, New Zealand]. Nick tells me both Futuros are now in Rangiora, a town some 30 km or so north of Christchurch, New Zealand.
For more information, history and photos on these two Futuros prior to their arrival in Rangiora please see the archived pages on the Kaimaumau Futuro and the Futuro recently purchased by Nick. Sources & Reference
Got new, updated or corrected information or an image I could use?
I am always looking for additional information, history, details, images, videos; just about anything Futuro I guess - if you would like to contribute please use the Futuro Contact Form at the bottom of the main article or email me. As far as images go I am particularly interested in those that are either significantly better than the ones already on this page or show a different aspect or detail. If you own an image meeting one or both of those criteria I would love to be able to use it on this page but I will simply provide a link if that is your preference. Where permission is granted to use an image on the page appropriate attribution will be provided by means of a link to the original image, a link to a website of your choosing or both. |
