Chuckles....took it on a maiden voyage of 125 miles into downtown Toronto and back to the shop. Floats and steers like a whale, engine purrs at highway speeds, gotta mount side mirrors, minor chassis work. It was just the best shakedown.....

I can picture that thing idling at the corner of Front And Yonge while the Bay street boys hit the go train!! Awesome.
 
Cant wait to get in on that tour.....that one and the HotRod tour as well.....gots to finish bulding the truck first......:D
 
OK with 2 days to go before the kick off, Frank will be sweating his ass off worrying about this, that and the other thing etc, I hope you all have a safe and trouble free tour, shame I wasn't there with you all having a good time but hopfully there will be another time.

John, you nailed it. You and Gary know what it's like around here just before an event.

This is a photo of participant kits that starts in our kitchen and goes straight through to the living room. After this, they got sorted in start points.

Hey Franko...Isn't that why you & Judy get the Big Bucks ?? :D:D

The stuff looks great..Glad your not just sitting around bored with nothing to do like the rest of us..I am packing several pairs of shorts so as not be out done by "shorts"..I am getting pretty antsi now..Trying to keep that jerk murphy from stopping in ..Diane is busy packing way to much as usual, just so we will have some winter clothes in case :eek:.We are so looking forward to this ..

With out sounding like a bit of a weenie ..Thanks Frank & Judy for making this happen. I understand how much time it takes to put any type of event on ..Hell I am working on a 4 minute speech for municipal council to-night ..4 minutes and I have been working on this for about 5 days...still at my desk to-day trying to put the finishing touch on it just for 4 min...

the presure of just checking the air in the tires and packing a box of good luck will take another day ..Then I still have to find a place to put Diane and two extra suitcases a coffee maker that we do not need..Hope I can see out the windscreen...We should be in Whitby around 5 pm..Anybody from London or our area that is heading to Whitby on Thursday that would want to get to-gether for the trip from London,Stratford, Kitchner Area..let me know ..we would like to leave around noon to through that stinkin traffic before the 3 pm rush hr ...it's bad enough when there is no traffic..I really hate Toronto and driving that 401...

Safe driving everyone and take lots of pics for us unlucky ones not going on the tour.
 
Chuckles....take the 407 from 401 to Brock. It may cost an extra $20 but it is worth every penny in time and aggravation and $20 in fuel (sitting in traffic). Lower blood pressure too! The 401 across Toronto only handles 500,000 vehicles a day...hahaha...don't be one of them....
 
Does the 407 run right to brock road at Whitby..:confused: I have never been on the 407 Sounds scary to me ..I rather enjoyed your electrifying experience :DBut I don't want to experience it ..:eek: Gotta watch the old heart eh!!!! I prefer to have a road by my self and drive under 40mph..remember, I am a senior and just have an old car..
 
...

Looks like we will fly thru London noon or sooner running 70/80 MPH. We can tag up and run with ya or wave and wish you well. what R you riding in.Do you have a two way radio? channel you like?
