Default Above Pricelist

That was included in my documents. It is for Canadian cars and is all priced in Canadian dollars.

Metallic Paint $1056
”Special” Exterior Colour $1664
Exterior colour to sample $2400

Also note the extra Standard Equipment for Canadian cars. All the stuff you need for cold climates plus a few extras.

I'm struggling with what to do here in Connecticut and can't imagine what it's like for you even further north.
We are pretty much 7 months of driving and 5 months of storage for the older stuff. May thru November is good give or take a couple weeks. I would guess Connecticut and Nova Scotia do not have materially different climates. The Gulf Stream keeps us very close to New York City, Boston weather even though we are a little further North.

Default More pics




Had to reseat #3 exhaust valve, was still in the very good range but not to our standards. Those numbers will go down to about 2% once rings are seated, about 1000km.

Default Original failure point


Rod bearing wear at 212,000kms, allowed the rod bolt head to contact the side of the oil pump quickly wearing a small hole. That caused both noise and a simultaneous drop in oil pressure. As mentioned the PO quickly pulled over and shut the engine off. I think his quick reflexes helped to avoid a catastrophic failure. As you can see, the clearances are very tight.

Default Non mechanical treats arriving as well.

Coco mats arrived today. I ordered blue and white. The blue is a very good match to the existing carpet. I think they will look great!

All welded up and painted with heat paint. The colour will settle in after a couple heat cycles.
