It was the Stratford Heritage Festival this weekend in ‘Canada’s Premier Art Town’. There was a giant old car show in the town square, that’s where I met Bruce:
That’s his 1942 Willys Overland MB, 1/3000 custom ordered by the CDN Government in November 1941. The C stands for Canada and the M denotes a 500 weight car. And that flag is of the 2nd CDN core of service that commanded troops in North Western Europe.
It went overseas and did stuff, came back and was found by Bruce’s dad rotten in a field. He fixed it up, passed it onto his son and now it’s beautiful, I kidded him about no dust even in the corners. Good story eh?
