Saw these cars in front of the churches, they were heading to Lunenburg. Started in St Johns and ending up in BC. Also saw a 62 Bonneville from St Johns, and the whole group were not all in Mahone Bay. The 57 Ford was a retractable.

Well son of a gun! I just looked at the stops they have scheduled. They are stopping in the campground in my town, August 12th. I walk by that campground twice a day every day! How cool is that!

Neither car would have had chrome valve covers from factory, they came out in 63. The air cleaner on the 62 is a later model, not sure what year had those snorkel caps but it must be something to do with emissions? 2 very nice cars.

My little town of 1800 done good tonight! We have a cruise night at the local grocery store. The owner often bbq's dogs and burgers, drinks, chips etc for free! Tonight was an exceptional night, we had a fundraiser for a local family who has a 14 year old boy fighting cancer. Live band, free food, fundraiser realized over $6600. It was a win/win tonight, great socializing, fun time for all.
This pic was taken when the crowd was about 1/3 the size it was at the peak time.
Saw this one today. Brings back memories of helping a neighbour shave the door handles and take off the chrome strip on the hood and fill it with lead.(Before I had a drivers license.)
Very nicely done especially the treatment of the rear window. Kept the split glass in the windshield.
Ok,, OK so I got a new memory card for my camera and now have 1.28 gb of space for photos.
I hadnt been taking photos as the camera indicated i didnt have any more memory.
Cliff
Thats all changed.

Out for my walk yesterday and this drove by me on main street Morris Manitoba. I can't say I know the car. Anyone in Manitoba recognize it? It came in to Morris from the east on #23, then turned south on #75 heading for the US border.
Went in for dinner to find another Pontiac Parked beside me, LOL. A little older than mine though. 38, talked to the owner, just a young guy, lol, just bought it out of Vancouver area.
