I've met Jim once before, in the fall of 2003, he's a great guy! And had quite a collection of rather unique cars up there in remote northern Ontario, he also has quite a collection of literature as I recall him showing me...

Although I'm not sure what he has left now for his cars. This might be the car in question that's for sale, although I'm certain he told me it was an A90 Westminster, unless the A50 Cambrian he mentions here is one he has acquired since then... Although he may have mentioned something about a separate storage yard, which we didn't have time to visit, I was only at his motel for about two hours or so.

Back then he also showed me an Austin A40 Sports he was restoring.

Where is Upsala you ask? https://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?city=upsala&state=on&country=ca&zoom=5&id=findlocalweather.com And try zoom level 3 for some perspective, yeah... that remote /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif There isn't much up there...
