Many of us out west knew of this collection and a few of us have seen it but I thought some of the rest of the country may enjoy it as well. Nice taste of a Pontiac dealer.
Have seen this collection many times. Sad to see it go. But I understand.
God his work shop and parts dept he had there was also magnificent.
I wonder if he is sell his memorabilia also to them.
And the kids aren't interested????? Holey dooley are they CRAZY?

If guys aren't going to get at least cost of restoration for their cars in the Canadian market, sometimes a guy goes where the money is. I've contacted collectors from all over the place in Europe, they're very interested but would like finished cars. When the car I'm selling gets finished, it will go on a road trip, then sold out of country.

Exactly.
It's like when there were a couple of guys on this website that were complaining about Canadian-made cars going to the U.S. They were going where people would pay the price.
If Canadians won't pay up, then they will go where the market is.

-China commits to a new $3-billion pipeline that would carry oil sands crude south. Phoenix Energy Holdings Ltd., the Canadian subsidiary of PetroChina Co. Ltd., partners with TransCanada Corp. to build a 900,000 barrel-a-day project, called the Grand Rapids Pipeline System, 500 kilometres from northwest of Fort McMurray to Fort Saskatchewan, near Edmonton.
I just called the Chinese embassy in Ottawa to tell them my 66 was available.... I'm asking 100,000.00 Yehn
... or we can rent our cars to our local Chinese restaurant for take-out delivery.
