  1. My first car was a 67 Dodge Dart GT. I never drove it legally though. I fixed it up over the summer and sold it. Sorry, no pics. Shortly after I came to my senses, followed the family tradition and became a GM man. I then My first cool car I legally drove was a 1969 Nova SS (high school).I drive a HUGE Buick Roadmaster Wagon now. I must be getting old because I think they're cool now. My last really cool car was my 1969 Camaro. It had a nasty small block in it. It ran low 11's street trim. That was about four or five years ago now. The car I wish I had back is my 1972 Vega GT, mint,straight,black,tubbed, 406 small block. Also ran low 11's street trim. I had this car for about eight or nine years. I miss it. I just found a pic of my 69, just after I sold it (with new paint ... same exact drivetrain, wheels, etc. ... he added a little spray and ran 9.70's with the car).

  2. How far do you want to go? Some of my favourite places (Provincial Parks) to camp and fish are Bon Echo, Murphy's Point, Arrowhead and the Pinery. Too far? Try Rockwood (small but nice). Sandbanks is awesome,but tricky to get in. Emily was decent too. I'll be going to Charleston PP soon and I'm hoping that's good. Sure looks beautiful. Let us know where you go and how it was.

  3. I run a small family business selling high performance muscle car/race parts. We've been open for 34 years and I'm hoping for at least another ten. Check us out at www.brantperformance.ca .

  4. Nice looking boat. Wish it was coming home with me. I didn't know the Legends had Smokercraft hulls. Something to keep in mind. My dad bought a Smokercraft 16' brand new about twenty years ago and it and the 60hp yammy are still going strong. Anyway congrats you lucky devil :devil: .

  5. Yep, the Pens are done. I doubt they'll win another one, but I still hope they do? You had to know the Wings would win the series. My brain said the Wings, but my heart said Pens. I hope the Wings put Chelios back in, he deserves to be there for the cup win.

  6. There's a story to the name my boat has adopted. I arranged for my ten year old son and I to pick up our boat in Kitchener while my daughter was taking her Irish dance lesson. I had picked her up late the week before while we looked at it, negotiated and left a deposit. Everything went according to plan and we even got back on time to pick her up. So she's a good ole boat. The guy I got it from was given it by his grandfather almost thirty years ago. She's had a few paint jobs and dents along the way. Now it was sort of a teal/aqua blue with white and kind of a minty green showing through in spots (depending how deep the scratch was). Somehow even with the boats appearance should we respectfully say "less than perfect" I was still excited to show her, I guess thinking of the good times we were going to have in it. So when my daughter walks out and sees the boat for the first time she says " That is HIDEOUS". So needless to say she just named the boat and it will forever more be known as Hideous (in an affectionate way LOL).

  7. Thanks for the post. I bought some Fireline Crystal (8#) and got rain checks for a couple 6#. Thanks again. Does anybody here use this as leader material? Looks like it'd be pretty good in the small #'s as the diameter is pretty small as well as being translucent and strong. I know Ian James suggests using the 6# as fly leader.
