His name is Floyd 

 

here is one of his ads 

 

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-auto-body-parts/edmonton/62-6-chevrolet-impala-ss-buckets-console-posi-etc/1013834346

 

he says he has 300 -400 cars - if you go into one of his ads and then select view posters other ads you will see what I mean - he has posted multiple pictures of his inventory in each of his ads 

 

I copied one of his pictures of a Pontiac tach just as eye candy 

He actually is in Sifton ( I know the sample ad I posted the link for refers to edmonton but from what I know his cars and parts are all in manitoba)

 

I have met him once and he is a character

Yes Floyd has a lot of unique eye candy that you just do not see in yards anymore . His yard is remote and very private , and by appointment only. Been there a few times , and it continues to amaze me . Advertises mainly in Alberta, rather than Manitoba

I've contacted Floyd a number of times about that tach in the picture........

not for sale unless you buy the complete bucket seat interior and console.

He doesn't answer his kijiji ads on line,you need to phone him,usually leave a message and he'll call back.

A tach for my 63 would be a great addition to my 4 speed conversion. Anyone see one for sale let me know.

I knew about him since the early 90s when I lived in Moose Jaw SK and finally met him at the Red River swap meet MB last spring, nice guy.

 Just an FYI.....if you didn't know already.......Those tachs come up for sale...on ebay...fairly regularly.....but the mounting escutcheon....is the hard to find piece.....Was a guy selling a nice repop of it...but think he is sold out..

I sold a 66 Grand Prix parts car to Floyd a couple of years back. As stated, he's a character, a genuine old car nut that guy.

I've never been to his place but I hope to get there some day.
