-See if you can visit all the guys on the island who have 65 Canso parts.

-Fill your pockets when they aren't looking.

-Meet me in Calgary this summer and trade all those Canso parts for a 6 speed Impala SS....

Well, I had a visit with Daryl in Campbell River this evening. Saw his Acadian project. It's one of the most rust-free Acadians I can remember seeing. My second car was a 63 Acadian wagon, back in 69 or 70, and it had more rust then at 6 or 7 years old.
So he has a nice solid platform to work with.
Tomorrow evening, I'm in Port Aberni.

Had a great BS session with John tonight! Seems he is about my age, and remembers stuff from our good ol' days. Remembered some  cars we had, cars we lost, cars we still wished we had, and cars we're gonna get (maybe)! I don't think I could handle all the traveling he does, especially without a car hauler, and  I'd really be out of room here if I did! I'd bring them all home!
Hope he gets to find some more of you guys along the way!

Did you notice any Acadian parts missing after he left?

I asked him to shoplift some goodies for me when he was visiting all you guys...
