Looks like I'm going on tour this summer!
I'll be making the trip from the middle of nowhere, Saskatchewan to Vancouver, B.C.
A customer wants me to come sort out the brakes on his 1940s Chrysler Town and Country.
While I'm there I'll be picking up a 1932 Raleigh LDV project from a friend and paying a visit to another friend who builds 1919 Excelsior board tracker replicas.
I'm going to stop at the Reynolds Museum in Alberta as well. I've never been there and I hear they have some incredible cars.

If anyone along the way wants to grab a coffee or needs some work done, feel free to contact me. #havewrenchwilltravel

Shawn, is the Raleigh for you? Super interesting. How many hours of a drive are we talking about here?

My friend says it's taking up space and he doesn't want it. I can't bear to see something like that trashed so it can get stored in my barn until I figure out what to do with it. The Raleigh club claims there's only 30 or so still registered. It's a 17 hour drive.

Were these only sold in England or did they make it to Canada?

I don't believe they were sold here. Someone may have imported it. I need to do some research.
There were a lot of British cars sold in Canada before the 1970's so there may have been a dealer. Victoria, B.C. is the only place in the world more English than England.

I like delivery vehicles. Hershey is the place to see them. Saw this on Facebook and thought it was cool. Know nothing about it.
