She has left the rock and heading East. Put her on the Sea Span barge for the ride. Was a nice "last" cruise with her. Ran smooth and not a wiggle in the wheel. Have fun when she gets there Kevin! Sent a treat in the glove box for you and Dougie.
I guess I'm missing something. It's being loaded onto a barge, I thought it was being transported via car Carrier from Vancouver Island to Ontario.
Not to worry, Clint. When he said she has left the Rock and heading east, I thought for a second it was in Newfoundland and headed over seas to the Europeans.. haha.
So she has made it all the way to Calgary where she sits. The people that have it now are to take it to Winnipeg for pick up next week. If it doesnt get picked up next week they will bring it to me. Funny thing is I was contacted by a guy that offered to bring the car i was going to buy From Ken to me next week.

I have had a lot of fun getting it running Ken, pulled the rad and flushed it out. New rad hoses and reinstalled rad. Poured in new anti freeze and it started running out the bottom of the engine. Found drain plug removed from block. Rob one from another engine and refill. Fired up on the old gas ( need to drain tank and put in fresh ) Have to get new check valve for brake booster then see if I can get brakes working. I will be able to move it around till I tear it apart
That has to be one of the longer purchases to start with, then the delivery took longer. She was waiting for nice weather to get to Ontario?
Good ordeal to have over.

LOL! I remember going there as a kid and seeing cars with the vinyl roof's torn up. Dad refused to take the 69 Pontiac through because of this and we used one of their zebra striped rentals .
