I just have one question, did that dark blue Honda park there after the rollback had already backed up to the wagon.
I can't imagine that rollback driver getting the truck in position with the Honda parked there.


Hey Norm, Like I said Rob from Bidwells was a magician. It was there as were all of the other cars on the street. It was very entertaining watching this unfold.

That Hino had some serious bad a$$ electric power steering.

Hi, I am in Timmins. The engine trans combo is still in the GP and can be heard running. I want to sell it complete starter alt trans. I want $3000 for the complete drop in. The combo has less than 60,000 miles and was well maintained. The engine wiring harness will also be included. The block is a 4 bolt main with no 62 heads with all numbers matching carb distributor etc. The high performance 428 is a one year only engine and was available in 370 or 390 hp versions. This engine runs excellent and does not smoke or have any lifter noise. It starts quick and the automatic choke still works. If interested let me know as I am leaving for Florida in a couple of weeks and will be gone for appx 2 months.

Carl, those pictures must be good motivation for Tiny because that is certainly not the car he got. Have a look at what TINY ans Van Goh are starting with...no

Way to go Todd. That does it, with the valance and rad support Van Gogh should be able to work the magic. I also dropped off NOS grilles the other day, carpet a ton of trim, tilt column with keys and some other odds and sods.
