Need help with Canadian Documentation


Hey Fred,

I just saw the 1972 Gorries Corvette sticker posted on "treasure of Canadian sales records" by midyr (Lance Hill) at this link:

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c1-and-c2-corvettes/2723874-treasure-of-canadian-sales-records.html

I think somebody in that same thread said they saw this same '72 listed on kijiji.
That would be neat if it were indeed true.
Did you see all the cars on the Gorries Golden Mile dealership parking lot, Corvettes, Novas (Brown Nova had window sticker) and what looked like a Red Yenko Deuce Nova trade-in too. 

Gary

Hey Fred, thank you for trying to show an older 1960s sticker!

I saw this 1967 midyear sticker about 2 years ago posted on www.67heaven.com and www.computersupport.ca/Restoration/Corvette.htm. I emailed the guy at 67HEAVEN@ComputerSupport.CA, Subject: Rebuild of a Legend; but this guy never answered back.
Anyway, this 1967 sticker is bogus as any midyear car guy can tell you. It is missing the 6-digit identity number, always started with 8-digit (ex: 801119) which was usually printed in upper right corner right underneath "General Motors Corporation" which in our case would've been:
Genaral Motors Products
of Canada, Limited

This highly modified car is now RED, has a non-original new big block engine, looks nice and has won awards at NCRS shows where it has been presented the last couple of years; BUT look nothing like the midyear on the bogus sticker.
The window sticker does use all the hard to find correct fonts!

If you know the owner I hope I did not hurt any feelings here because I did not mean to. Just telling it like it is, like it was, like it shall be!!

Gary

Thank you for the mention of the red Corvette..   The owner was on here, and very knowledgeable..  The owner was building a killer garage for it...  A misunderstanding led to him leaving...  He was hoping to get a Canadian Poncho project..  Hopefully he may come back...C2

This is an awesome site! I just was referred to it by a friend on another thread where I have the restoration thread on my Canadian 1972 Formula 455HO that was sold new at London Motor Products in Ontario. I'd love to get the Canadian window sticker reproduced. I have all the PHS and GM of Canada documentation on the car. I even have an inch thick pile of work orders from the 1970s (most of them covering warranty work on that crazy unitized ignition!).

Can anyone help me with the sticker request?

Here's a sample:

I will start a new thread introducing myself in the right section of this site.

Thanks!

NJSteve

Hello guys and gals, this Canadian window sticker thing is kind of taboo with some people on this site and another used by Canadians, which is Steve's Nova site. So let me say right now that my intention is to make reproduction window stickers, not fake, fraudulent ones. I am not a counterfeiter by any means, nor do I want to make a profit off of fellow members here.

I have been working on this Canadian window sticker thing for about 3 years now.
I started out trying to help a friend who has a 1966 Acadian Canso Sport Deluxe and another friend, Henry, over at the NCRS-Ontario who is researching Canadian window stickers. Henry and I found a 1970 Corvette from Gorries Golden Mile in Toronto that is on two sites, http://www.c3registry.org and also on http://www.1970corvetteregistry.org

Anyway I will now show you that window sticker and 2 blank reproductions I have made, one is English and the other Canadian French/English.

I believe the this type English version was used from 1966 to 1969 and this type Canadian French/English type was used from 1970-1974. IMHO
  
In addition to RPO Z49 Canadian Equipment, there was also other RPOs found on Canadian window stickers and build sheets: V48 Engine Coolant, ZK8 Tire Pressure Sticker and ZQ7 Canadian Warranty.

Hey Rick,

 

Not sure if you ever got a line on a good reproduction window sticker for your car.  I found a reference to Paul on the Corvette Forum and gave his service a try for my Corvette.  I provided my GM of Canada paperwork - he was great to work with and the quality and detail are both outstanding. He works on the full size Chevy stuff mostly, but you can ask him about your car and what's possible.  His e-mail is FSC66@Yahoo.com

I'd like to speak with anyone working on or looking for reproduction window stickers for Chevrolets especially and maybe other GM cars also. Paul from Winvoices.com. Thank you

I have been reproducing Canadian window stickers for a while now depending on the model and year.
There are 3 different versions: 1: if the car was produced in Canada and exported to the US. 2: If the car was built in the US and exported to Canada and 3: if the car was built and sold in Canada.
