I'm seriously starting to think the previous owner got taken for a $16,657.33 ride, so I've included a fully itemized list of all the work done by a certain London, Ontario mechanic. I've made some comments in parenthesis about some of it. It is more or less me typing out the several bills the previous owner gave me in a folder containing everything about the truck.

Calling it, Marc Sinclair Neighbourhood Auto on Wonderland Road.

NAPA Auto Pro in Thorndale.

I have no experience with that shop but they're on my list now. Also why in the world would you bring such an old and odd vehicle to a place like that.

Yeah I'd really wait. My 66' Yamaha passed with a gauge that would wildly gyrate +- 10mph and I'm in Ontario as well. Essentially everything on my bike got a pass because of age.

Absolutely. Looks like it's coming along well, although it's pretty winter-y in Onterrible from what I understand.

Depends where you live. In southern Ontario all the snow is limited to just London. This screenshot illustrates natures hate for London. It was like that for 4 days straight.

iirc the problem with expanding foam is that although you can get closed cell stuff, it tends to shrink over time, which leaves lots of small pockets for moisture to accumulate in and eventually rust. As mentioned cavity wax seems to be where it's at.

This is that part of the project where the impractical old project car starts cursing the rest of your modern cars in a bid to become the daily driver.
