OK, not exactly spotted, more like arranged, am in Kingston ON for work, and, the guy who originally owned my Viva gave me the number of this guy who has - bizarrely - another Gt (remember they estimate about 65 left worldwide of 4606 ever made) and this is the second I have found and he - the original owner found at least three. It is a POC but, there are a few things I will pull, notably the wire harness and some trim. Not likely till the spring. However in addition to this, a few odd tractors there was a Lotus kit car RHD apparently originally from South Africa and smuggled into the country in a container of parts - no engine - ever - yet? Parked next to a Fiat 850 and two Harleys (can you say eclectic) This out in the country surrounded by a 180 lb Great Dane, some other mutt and a chihuahua - and, the guy had never used a cell phone, a computer or the internet. Made me think of Billy - I don't know why. :devilgrin:



 
Nice JP, a customer who comes into my place of work, his son has a superformance cobra that was imported legally into Canada but apparently they are illegal to bring in now and it may be due to our safety requirements. The 7 clone possibly a Birkin?
 
should remember the name - was (I thinks) two initials and a letter? RS8 something like that
 
Just finishing the thought - lots of cars out today, mostly Detroit iron, Walked out of church and there was a guy with a '69 Firebird. Bought from the original owner in 1976, never repainted, never restored, lovely! and then we took the Ferry to Prince Edward County on the way home - driving out of Pciton saw a lovely red TR3 with roof up - not able to get a pic, but, gorgeous!
