Wow, what a great looking utility truck Jim. Incredible job!

But sadly, the first thing that came to my mind was...it would be gone out of my driveway down here in about a day.

 Hopefully they are pre drilled!  Looking good Kevin, was sort of curious if you had been working on this one.

Installed my new injectors from Site Sponsor: ROCK AUTO

Huge savings and not bad for delivery time.

http://canadianponcho.activeboard.com/t64402627/rockautocom-discount-code-for-parts-more-expires-may-22-2018/

 

And I found some Canadian History in my Cleveland built car.

006a.jpg

 220px-Alcan_logo.svg.png

Alcan was a Canadian mining company and aluminium manufacturer. It was founded in 1902 as the Northern Aluminium Company, Limited, renamed Aluminium Company of Canada, Limited in 1925, and Alcan Aluminium Limited in 1966. It took the name Alcan Incorporated in 2001. During that time, it grew to become one of the worlds largest aluminium manufacturers.

Alcan was purchased by Australian-British multinational Rio Tinto for $38 billion in 2007, becoming Rio Tinto Alcan Inc.

Participated in "PEI Burger Love" on Friday and had a great burger from a local restaurant. Woke up with a bad case of gout yesterday. Still hobbling around like an idiot. Lesson learned. Gout season has started (starts for me in the Spring and runs until November). Have to start eating like a rabbit cry
