" Hi Peter,

How's things in good old Calgary?

I thought that perhaps I may send you some pictures I took of my car at "The Lookout" near Vernon, BC after a car show they had in the park.

It's a l976 Pontiac Lemans Sport Coupe with a 350 cu. in. Chev motor and a three speed automatic. I'm the second owner. Bought it from my neighbor when I lived in Kamloops, BC. Has just over 100,000 Miles on the engine. Other than changing the oil and filters the only thing I've done was to replace the water pump, plugs and wires.

It was a good driver for my wife who drove it to work and the occasional trip to Alberta and down to the BC coast. Since replacing it with a minivan in l990 or thereabouts, the car has been a work in progress. Still dressing it up for the car shows, it's a nice looking car and hope to keep it for another few years.

Hope that you can continue with this web site of yours. I really enjoy it. It's awesome!
