Cruise was out to Westsyde Auto Service as Bill Lindsey
said he would explain what was involved in bringing a
car into the province of BC. |
|
 |
Well the night started off with
us checking out Al Paulsen's latest barn find of a 1948
Chevrolet |
 |

 |
The restored and the wantabee restored |
|
After leaving
Riverside Park after supper the girls were dropped
of at Marg Hoshowski's on the way out to Westsyde for
coffee
as they were not interested in the spiel on importing cars
to BC |
 |
The
shop is operated with Bill and his son Mike. |
 |
Bill went into
great detail what the province is looking for when you
bring a car in to BC to make certain that it is road
worthy.
It may sound tough on those importing a car but it is in
the safety of all those that use the roads.
Bill handed out a number of sheets that related to the
things that have to be checked.
He said he could not fudge a
government inspection for anyone as if the
vehicle was involved in an accident later on
he could lose his mechanics license and be out of a
job. |

 |
 |
The size of
the tool box and amount of tools a mechanic now requires
to do his job is unbelievable. |
 |
|
 |
| Bill had a car
on the hoist so he could show us the various items as he
explained the things to us. |
 |
|
 |
Thanks to Bill we are now a lot
wiser when it comes to importing a car in to BC
whether it be Vintage, Collectable or a late model
that we are going to use for a second car. |
