Re: Car shows 2016
That's a beauty Dave. Tell your Blue friend he has houris rear wheels on backwards. Or is the front on backwards. Been so long since I had mine on I forget...is that all original paint ?

Re: Car shows 2016
All the dealer brochures I have from 92 through 97 show the wheel spokes slicing forward so yes, her rears are on backwards. Maybe it's from rotating omnidirectional tread tires or the Service Manager is an idiot.
She told me she bought the car new upon opening her medical practice. Not a gearhead, it has always been serviced by the same north Toronto dealership. She is all of 5 feet high and has a special cushion that her 6'4" husband removes when he (rarely) drives it. Yes, original paint and garaged year round. When I got my SVX back in 2012 a local car buddy, Bob, was looking for a 90's Jaguar coupe but once he saw mine he went out and found a unique all White 92 Quebec Dealer's Parade/Showroom candy LSi from the Ottawa area (with a 97 grill added by the dealer that painted the entire car in White Pearl. Sadly he decided last year 2015 that he had too many cars for 75 year old but gladly he sold it to a fellow Canadian enthusiast. Here we are together at the 2013 Lakeside Car Cruise.

Yesterday my wife lost her battle with cancer and Kidney Failure.
She got to see the SVX finished. Rest in peace.

Re: Car shows 2016
John, my deepest condolences to you and your family. Glad I had the privilege to meet Harlene the one time at the cruise in. It was comforting to see all the friends and family last night. I hope you dont mind me sharing two of your photos from the collage that I liked.
