Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada | Well the meet and show is over now - it was a huge success here on Vancvouver Island. One of the highlights was a visit to a local private bone-yard with a huge amount of Forward Look Cars. I have never seen so many 1957-1958 Dodges in one spot. Here is the coverage - article and about 200 photos.

Thanks for posting all the photos on the WPC website. We had the same monsoon here in Vancouver, WA on Wednesday that rained out all the scheduled activities but the rest of the week was the same as yours north of the border.

That monsoon was all through BC as well, some major flooding in Kamloops - cars driving through water half way up the wheels. I guess a lot of BC, WA and some of OR got the rain.

He would be interested in selling parts from what I understand. He is a pleasant fellow but he did have a bad experience some time back when some other car club went in without his knowledge or permission. I'll have more pictures some time next week. |

He is the son of our local club's founder. He's relatively new at ventriloquism but not bad.
He tells Canadiana type jokes. He's also a retired police officer.
His web page is here http://professionalstoryteller.ning.com/profile/GaryPGreen
He's also on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/garypatrickgreen?fref=ts&ref=br_tf
