WHAT'S NEW MAY 2022
Saturday we had the opportunity to stroll through an indoor car show for the first time since
Detroit Autorama 2020.
The International Centre near Toronto Airport is an interesting venue using many different rooms allowing for different themes and moods. 
There was a great cross section of vehicle types and styles shown and we enjoyed our afternoon.
Here are a couple pictures.
There is more coverage in our "Car Show Coverage " page

WHAT'S NEW APRIL 2022

I am glad swap meet season starts soon because I am running out of room for good used parts and I keep finding them. We came across a nice collection of 1968-1969 Buick Skylark parts that we can sell. We also picked up some more 66- 67 Nova / Acadian parts as well as some wheels - 38 Chevrolet, Cutlass 14" ralleys and some others.

What's New March 2022

The sun is shining, pretty well all of the snow is gone - it is a little muddy but it feels like spring is close.
The swap meet news is promising, parts are coming in and going out.
Last fall we picked up this 1938 Chevrolet 4 door parts car. It came from Saskatchewan and is in good shape.
Many of the parts were spoken for as soon as we got it on the yard but there are still some treasures left. 
western 38 Chevrolet frame with Dubonney front suspension
4 door sedan roof
view of the frame and rear portion of the car
inner wheelhouse and floor
passenger side quarter -fender mount area is very nice
trunk floor and rear pan
drivers side quarter - fender mount area also very nice
trunk back sedan trunk lid - some rust on inner lip but nice outer
pair of wheels
pair of very nice back doors
steering wheel, air breathe, rusty headlight bucket etc
​heater, cowl vent and other small parts

WHAT'S NEW FEBRUARY 2022

Let's talk about trucks. We teased you with information but no pictures of the 56 GMC we had trucked from out west last fall. We finally got around to taking a few pictures and here are a couple.
Western cab with doors. 
Fenders are in the cab.
We already had this really nice stock shortbox frame saved from a previous project.
Truck is 5th in line for work or might sell.

What's New September 2021

Does it ever feel good to get out and visit with the people, see the cars, hear the Oldies and all the great stuff that goes with Car Events.
Fun on Wheels at Heritage Village was a great success. Most of us can only remember once in the over 40 years of this event with more cars and people.
Great job volunteers for tackling this event with short notice and doing a great job. The facilities were great, and we had a great day.
Here are a couple of pictures we took - there is more coverage in our "CAR SHOW COVERAGE" blog area.

This beautiful coupe has been in my blogs before.

I don't think there are many rods that have logged the miles Gary's Chevy has over the years.

I didn't see Scoobie but the mystery machine was there.

cool rat rod truck under the trees.
