Greetings From Calgary Alberta Canada

Post by Jonpop »

Hey everyone just joined and thought I'd share some appraisal images of my 61 I picked up last summer, spent my first full summer ripping around the province around Banff, Lake Louise and other cool hangouts up here in Alberta. Just adding some finishing pieces ie the dome light just arrived......See you on the boards...

Congrats! What a great-looking car--I'm jealous.

Out of curiosity, what is that red "thing" above the rear back seatrest; (the pix with the dome light showing)?

Welcome on! That is a great looking Comet. A friend of mine in high school had a 61 (but not nearly that nice).

Jonpop,

Sweet looking ride! :D

I'm really jealous of your super clean door panels and backseat!

Always got to support my homeland Canucks let them know that we welcome them and yes they may know some of my family members in the various parts of Canada where they live or lived. I guess I get home sick somewhat when I see where many of these new members come from in Canada.
