was in London ON visiting friends. Went to Attic Books my favourite used book store - they have amazing and interesting stock - including transportation. Only bought two books - one on the history of steamships in northern Ontario and the other some here might recognize - I may have read it as a child but am not sure.
This friend we were staying with, his father is really into older cars - 29 Bentley Speed Six for a while, 29 Packard Super 8 convertible and my friend will shortly be receiving the 37 LaSalle Convertible. At any rate we went to meet a guy from another forum who is building Molvo - a Volvo p1800 wagon on a Miata "frame" (Interior and suspension) and a Ford 5 litre engine from a Mustang - it is gorgeous and built to a very high standard and will have AC & automatic & cruise when done - it is for his wife. He also has an MGBGT
Then went to Stratford (where Justin Bieber is from ) which has a great Shakespeare theatre - watched The Music Man - amazing! (and they had a promotion $29 per ticket and they chose the seating - great seats and a great show. Then, on the way home stopped to buy some peep mirrors from a guy - $20 for a pair in perfect shape (the Midget has bullet mirrors that look awesome but don't actually work) - then had to admire his '55 Chevy wagon - all in all a great day!
Oh and we passed moparfest so lots and lots of muscle cars floating around.
