    Nice Car Harvey!, Use it in good health. I like the color. If it was a 72, it would be burnished copper, but it's a 71, so is that copper mist?

    I believe it is Bittersweet Mist Poly.

    Yeah, I love that color. The color combo works great together with the white interior. You don't really see that color very much on GS's. Rare, but it's a very nice color, it makes the car stand out more.

    Back from skiing and in one piece and still able to walk. I just had enough time to take more pics before dark. The car still needs a lot of clean up and misc tinkering but it certainly is a solid piece.

    Pic #3 speedo with actual mileage. There is also a lube sticker on the door showing 35,000 miles in 1988. I am going to try to remove it for safe keeping.

    Hey Doug...
    You definitely have to make the trip to Puyallup this year. It's at the end of June. We can get Chris to get us a spot all together and fly the V8 colors! We should certainly try to get together before then though...some of the local shows are good. I won't be on the road for a month or so considering getting the car safety checked and the few things I have to do to it. But we will do it...after all we are the only Vancouver V8 brothers. Maybe we can convince Bill Van Steen to come over from the Island to join us or we could always go to the Island. I know they have a lot of shows over there. Cheers and thanks for the compliments!

    Hi George,
    Thanks Buddy! Your compliments are really appreciated. What's happening at your end. I thought you sold your 66, but I still see it in your signature?

    Hi Chris,
    I doubt I will ever run her down the track but I would certainly bring it out as a spectator. (Weather permitting :laugh: ) Let me know if you are going for sure and we'll hook up. Doug, we can head out together in both cars!

    Not sure Harvey, I need to check with Scott. I know he has been real busy at work lately.

    I'l let you know. Puyallup definitely is a plan for this year, I won't be in Canada like last year!

    I will have to see if I can find someone to drive one of the cars down for me.
