This Saturday at Stanely Park!

Who wants to meet up there, or convoy over? I'm thinking of going around noon.

If I'm smart I'll enter the M5 and put a for sale sign on it! Hmmm...

Come over and help me spray stain on my deck first and I'll go. I've missed it every year for the last few...

Would love to come but I have to limp around my yard on Saturday and get some work done. But I am planning on going to the Ride's N Rods event on Sunday, 11-3 on Edmonton Trail, from 38-41 Ave.

'twas a hot day... :(

Lotsa cars from the British contingent. 6 Volvos...only one (RT and his V8 242GT) that I knew. A little disappointed with the turnout of some other makes though. Only one Ferrari, A Dino. Only one Lambo, a Diablo, 2 Mercedes and 4 BMWs. They should call it a British car show and forget about the rest...

Some nice cars though. That M5 was nice...wonder who owns that? :?

Thanks for stopping by Dale. I had a good time, even with my nice redneck burn!

Shortly after you left a very nice 1972(?) 2800e showed up then a very rare bmw Z1 (the one with the sliding doors).

I enjoyed some of the more unique cars, that little blue fiat that won both italian class and cutest car, the race cars, the lotus elan, beautiful TVRs and chatting with different folks. The guy with the Z1 bought it from the BMW museum in south africa and said he could get more easily! Also sounds like he owns about 12 cars....

I think we should get a better volvo contingent out next year! i'll post some pics later.

No...there was the Z1, the 2800, your M5 and whatever was beside you...a 323 or something like that...with Manitoba plates on it...maybe there was another car between the M5 and the one with Manitoba plates...

Hot day + european car show + tall hot blonde on crotch rocket = FTW

Oh, and I didn't even think about it until later, but not sure how that Shelby Cobra snuck in there (yes, a real one). Is/was shelby originally from europe?
