Star Garage Patea is a mini museum collection of cars, automobile parts and memorabilia mainly (but not exclusive to) 50s,60s,70s.
Proprietor Jim Baird has a collection of various model cars, parts and memorabilia. Located in Patea, New Zealand, it has been described as a mini MOTAT, it's a huge warehouse filled with old cars out of movies, including the Kiwi Shell car from the NZ movie cult classic "Came a Hot Friday".
Jim usually sits outside his garage with his sausage dog Ted (the town's self proclaimed Mayor of Patea).
Jim is more than happy to provide visitors with a guided tour of his collection and current restoration projects that he may be working on.
Entry is free however, a donation is kindly appreciated to help fund the maintenance of his collection and towards current and future projects.
For further queries, Jim is best contacted by phone or email as he considers himself a dinosaur when it comes to social media.
*Note Jim does not always monitor this page and has been set up with assistance.
