And thanks for the explanation Don (Oh and welcome, we're glad you're here.) I was being a little goofy to suggest that Beamsville & Caledonia were next door - I lived in Ancaster for 12 years. Though relative to the distances on these boards - Denmark, Florida, Calgary etc. they are awfully close. The third ad I was talking about (which is sort of the fourth I suppose) is this one
"There is, in Burlington Ontario, an 1800 that has been sitting in a garage for about 25 years. Now, before you get too excited it is a mess, it is all there and would offer lots of parts. In terms of a restoration, unless you can get some divine intervention, I don't think it is going to happen, but a thick head and determination does go along way.
The car is free for the taking, it would have to be dragged out its lair, hopefully someone wants it otherwise it is off to the scrapper.
let me know.
Roger"
That was July - don't know what happened to it but it might be worth tracking down for parts. I am potentially interested though like Willie I have no room right now - Hoping to get Ms. Triss off to the body shop in the next week or so so SWMBO can get her car in the garage for the winter.
The 1800 while cool is a little newer than I hoped my next project would be - on the other hand, these things have a way of finding you and it would be interesting - so, let's keep in touch.
thanks again /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cheers.gif
