Sweet looking low light bay Westy with deluxe trim, two cars ahead of me at the AirCare in Langley yesterday.  I was the Turkis beetle... they wouldn't let me walk in so I had to admire it from a distance.  Savannah beige?  Lowered....  Light is crap in there but it sure sounded good.

Delta green 68/69 deluxe bus with full rack in the White rock Canadian tire parking lot.

Might want to think about buying some real tires and not driving it on salty days ;)

Looked well-used and happy.    This was late April in the parking lot that's shared by Canadian Tire and Michaels (and McDonalds) on Main Street in North Vancouver.   I waited around a little while to see if the owner(s) would be back so I could say Hi and hear their story but after about 15 - 20 minutes I had to be getting on home so never got to meet them.   I guess the passenger did not need a windshield wiper?
