Datsun 280Z

Spotted this beautiful Datsun 280Z at the Nanaimo Dairy Queen last night. Really nice folks who came out of the drive-thru and parked so I could get some pictures of their car.Classic Import from the 1970's,

Campbell River’s Legendary Heavy Chevy

The Heavy Chevy was a fixture at Van Isle Dragways from around 1967 to 1972. It was owned by Greg Baxandall and was a member of the Posi-tracks Racing Team based out of Campbell River.  The Heavy Chevy was often seen around Campbell River in the late 1970’s, occasionally racing at Menzies Bay.  The Heavy Chevy has since been restored and can still be spotted around Campbell River to this day.

Barry's 1969 Acadian SS

A special highlight for me from the 2014 Show N Shine season was meeting up with my friend Barry in Duncan before the Beverly Corners Show N Shine. Barry let me take his beautiful 1969 Acadian SS for a burn around town. I absolutely love Barry’s car; I have been taking pictures of it for several years and it was a privilege to finally get behind the wheel.  It is one of the nicest Acadians on the island, in my opinion. Thank you to Barry for providing me with such a great highlight to the 2014 season!

Ellie Made My Day......

Without a doubt the highlight of my 2015 Show N Shine season was when i was taking pictures at the 2015 Shriners Show N Shine on the beach in Parksville when Ellie & Roger were wheeling into the show and Ellie stopped in her Rod, Jumped out and said “You can drive it in” .........later you would have needed a hammer & chisel to take the smile off my face! Thank-you Ellie for giving me the best Show N Shine highlight ever! Made my Summer for sure!
