I am beyond excited! Ted Hector and Gary MacDonald have asked me to join them at the Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Trials this year to ride their highly modified Harley 45 in an attempt to reset the 750AVG and 750AVF speed records. The bike is shown with the headlight that was attached for "road...

On December 21 Arlene and I celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary. That morning our daughter Michelle gave us the greatest gift in the world with the birth of our grandsons Blake and Adrian!!! Adrian Blake

Last week I bought this as an early birthday present for my wife ... Kawasaki 800 Vulcan.

This cowl came to me this weekend but I have no idea what it is from. Does anybody recognize it?

Found what I believe is a 26 T body and frame, some pretty bad fenders, a couple of grill shells, a custom frame, Ford 289 engine, a rear end and a front axle and dragged it all home today. The owner threw in the engine stand and a set of ramps and tells me there is another cowl that will be...

Here it is ... the first major step in moving towards my "dream" shop ... or at least as dreamy as my wallet will allow :D. More when the contractor actually starts on the pad and foundation.

Might have to take a road trip in August ... http://www.mackauctioncompany.com/18aug4.html Mack Auction Company is pleased to sell by auction the long time collection of the famous Gervais Family Farm Wheels museum August 4 & 5 of 2018. This collection was featured on the TV show Canadian...

Here are some photos from this year's "Rodarama" car show put on by the Manitoba Street Rod Association. Not much for rat rods but lots of truly stunning cars being shown.

Look what followed me home today. Not entirely sure where this will end up but I'm planning to use a T bucket style frame that I have and one of these engines that I have in order of probability .. a 355 sbc with dual quads and a th350 trans, a 200 Ford inline 6 with c4, a 302 Ford with c4...

I'm getting a lot of conflicting advice lately regarding the ignition for my current project (Sheets & Giggles 23 T nostalgia altered). I am using a 383 sbc, 671 blower, Enderle injection and alcohol fuel. I will be running 15 pounds of boost maximum .. likely closer to 10 - 12 lbs. The...

Spent some time helping the owner get this one to stay running this weekend. Minor problems only, and the owner is happy now. I think he wants to sell the car but I'm sure he wants about a gajillion dollars for it. Pretty rare car from what I've been told.

Here's a couple photos of my 1980 Mustang. 79000 Km original milage. Picked it up for $1000 at the start of the build. Got a few more dollars into it now :) 408 stroker dynoed at 532 HP, 550 TQ C4 with manual valve body, Hurst ratchet shifter 3800 stall converter Aluminum driveshaft 3.89...

Thought I'd post a couple pics of the other project in the shop right now. This one was found in a Florida swamp and was rotten from the door handles down. Very rare car I'm told. I don't personally have anything to do with it but its pretty cool. Definitely a different sort of project than...

This one is for sale on Kijiji. Wonder what could be done with this ugly duckling. http://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/winnipeg/1951-nash-airflight-rambler-country-club/1040534724?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true

Sheets & Giggles - Nostalgia Altered Project About a year ago I posted these pictures and asked for opinions on which way I should go with the build. As it was we were to busy with freshening the Scout and building the Prefect to start on my T.

I'm going to blame this all on my buddy Dave. It all started when I bought a 671 blower core from him since I had never done a conversion myself and thought it might be fun. Then I realized I didn't have a motor to put it on, so I had to get a SBC project started. But then I realized I didn't...

Hi. I've been lurking around for a little while now and I guess I should introduce myself - Larry Arnold from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I've been car crazy since I was a kid .. and that was a long time ago. Started racing stock cars locally back in 1970 and have raced cars or motorcycles...
