The South Island tour started eight days ago in Christchurch and finishes today in Dunedin's Magnetic St, by the yacht club, at 3pm.
Yesterday's schedule took about 40 classic vehicles, ranging from Bentleys, Rolls-Royces, MGs and Ferraris, and 100 people, from Haast to Alexandra via Tarras for lunch.
The day included jet-boating on the Haast River and morning tea at Makarora.
Co-organiser David Mehrtens of Dunedin joked the rally was merely an excuse to drive between food stops.
There had been some mechanical adventures, as to be expected when one tried to drive a classic car 220km a day for eight days in a row, but few major mishaps: "The AA man would argue it has been one of the quietest ones he's been on."
The couple have organised all nine Penrite Mainland rallies in the past 16 years.
The tour appealed to enthusiasts from all over New Zealand, with one entrant bringing his car down from Albany in Auckland.
Each community they passed through used the rally for their own fundraising purposes, Mrs Mehrtens said.
Eight schools had been supportive, and the weather for the tour had been good.
