In 1979, Bill Ward with the help of a very few friends

Built a little Street Roadster with a small block Chev engine

And the name Kiwi A Salt was born along with the slogan

“Kiwi's can't fly, but they sure run fast”

Bill was the first Kiwi to build and race a car on the salt after our own Burt Munro.

This website journals the history of the new incredible car
