Greeting and salutations. I read your Bio and both my wife and I ride motorcycles, only thing my son isn't old enough to ride solo yet or he would be on one too. Couldn't figure out where Vanastra was, are you doing the Toronto bike show next week?

Vanastra is the former Clinton Army Base, next to Clinton. We're over Goderich way - intersection of hwys 4 & 8. No, we won't be in Toronto this weekend. it's a good 2 hour drive, dsepending where in the city you're going.

Any friend of Carl's is a friend of our's. Grandpa drove me to school in a 56 Laurentian so I sure have a soft spot for these cars. Your's is extra nice.

Welcome to the site, nice that another one of you from the Clinton area is on here. I lived up in Exeter for a while and worked in Goderich...miss the area, not the snow.

I'm checking on the names of colors for you. Don't everyone get angry, but it's a '67 ford color, the closest I could get since the original isn't made anymore. will let you know.
here are the paint numbers of what is on the car now. very close to waht it was originally: GM 522 WA 5704 Polar White Limco 3 Suffix A Stock # 4430
Fdu V M1921 Emberglo met Limco 3 Suffix C Stock # 177
not sure what all thes numbers and "suffix" are, but they were on the paint can so i listed them for those who do know.
