Only about 25 minutes from me. I can go if someone needs something checked out. I would need to go in the next few days, otherwise travel will likely be out of the question for a couple of weeks after that. I don't know the seller but I've seen a few of his ads.
Not in the boat yet. A few more days still likely. It's finally starting to rise, although slower than other years due to the cool weather.
If you happen to contact him and he has anything of interest to you, let me know. It's about 10 minutes outside of Winnipeg, right on the road I always take to go to the city.

His name is Howard, He was just over my place picking up my front disc brake set-up, I told him to join us, he's got a bunch of 1969 Pontiac 2+2 parts for sale...Great guy too ! He should show up as a newbie on this site soon.
Well I just joined this site , so you can call me the newbie. I must say this site is quite impressive. Way more activity than other sites ( Impala), that I follow.
I'm basically a 69 Chev "guy" , with a couple of 69 projects on the go. I have always weakness for the late 60's GM's , having owned many over the last 25 years. ( 67 2+2 convertible,72 Grand Prix, 68 Firebird , 69 Impala convertible, 67 Chevelle SS, plus many more)
I recently aquired a 69 2 dr Laurentian local project that had stalled . And yes there were enough parts with it (4 truckfulls). My inital intentions were to finish the project. The previous owner was going to build a 2+2 clone, and had parted out a 69 2+2 for all the specific related parts.
As mentioned , I have a weakness for these B body cars , but I am drowning in them ( nothing to do with the flooding). I now realize l must re-focus and finish my inital projects. As a result , I will most likely just keep the frame from this Laurentian, glass and some interior pieces, and then sell off the rest of the parts to any Canadian- Pontiac restorers.
Not sure how to list parts on this site , but I plan to soon.
Thanks again ! My little Lasalle river is getting pretty high and big behind my place, I am worried ! The sump pump in the basement has been going all day because the water table is higher than my basement now, the fields are flooded everywhere and the rain sure doesn't help !!! Maybe I'll be sandbagging tomorrow ?
I'm lucky enough to be within the towns ring dike, but the water is sure rising here too.. My sump pump is running a lot this evening due to the rain, and high water table. If we didn't have the permanent dike right behind my houseg , I would easily have 10 feet of water in my yard, and the first floor of my house would be under water.
Just kidding Howard. Welcome here from a "neighbour" just a bit south of you near Morris.
