Nice to meet you .. I will keep my eyes open.. :)

I see you are looking for people from the vancouver area, I live in Ladner, does tthat qualify

Well that makes Two from Ladner, and i really hope it counts.

I'm not too far...i'm in North Delta

im in kamloops now but moved from surrey

I'm from Langley

I'm from Vancouver,Kits... :c2:

I'm out in Tsawwassen.

well so what kinda rides do the vancouver members have

Mines' a 1968 GMC 3/4 ton fleetside. 250 straight 6, pretty much bone stock. Will be doing upgrades on the motor is the spring with body work and paint done sometime next year.

I was born and raised in Vancouver and now live in Coquitlam
I just picked up a 1971 C20 that will be my daily driver/restoration project.

I'm in Vancouver too. I drive a '81 C20 2wd, its a bit rusty, but still runs pretty good.

Does anyone know of a place where you can rent a bay by the hour to do repairs? There is one on the internet in Surrey, but their phone is disconnected so I guess they are out of business. Living in an apartment means I have to do all my work on the street.

im from van isl,ive got a 71 gmc burb

What's up fellow traffic warriors!? Representing New West here, I drive an '87 Silverado with a rebuilt 350 driving a rebuilt 700r4 transmission. Here's a pic.

I live in Ladner but grew up in Cloverdale. Good to see people from the west coast here.
Since i am new here i should introduce my truck too. It's a 67 chevy lwb. I got a pretty good deal on it as the right door/fender had been hit. Picked it up wednesday this last week.Planning on doing a resto on the truck starting next spring, should be fun.
Anyone here have or know of someone how has good used body parts for this truck (looking for the right door, fender and a-pillar).
Thanks Jon.

Living in Langley....home of the Good times Cruise In.:) Anybody show their ride at this years event?

Hi 63sbssbbw


Flamingo = "the Flamin' O" man did I have some wild nights there, best night was a private party with "Doug and the Slugs"

Yeah, that was the place to go if you had some extra cash burnin' a hole in your pocket
Was there(Surrey) a coulpe of years ago, I cannot believe the traffic there,it's just insane.
Doug and the slugs,I would have paid to see that!!

checking in ......Surrey...70 c-10.....for now....if the paper work clears:banghead:

I'm a new member Burnaby BC 1971 k5 4x4 Blazer nearing completion.I"m Having some difficulty with the correct seat configuration. I have seat brackets that dont match hole patterns but look close to the correct seats. I have a picture of both brackets and will try to post. Maybe someone here can remove the spell. I have two diffferent passenger seat latches wich one is for 69-72 and wich one is for 73 and up that will pretty much answer my question being. Are bucket seats changed from 72 to 73 ? Thanks Rob:metal:

I'm originally from Vancouver, does that count? :lol:

Actually, I can't even say that. I was born in Port Coquitlam, moved to Australia, then Glasgow Scotland, then Point Roberts. But I still call Vancouver my home town. Haven't been there since just after Expo 86 when I joined the US Navy in 1988.

I still miss the place, even though a lot has changed in the 20 years since I lived there.


Just waving a hand at all the folks now inhabiting my home town. :hm:

I live in Langley driving my 67 Chevy. Any Lower mainland meet up's? I'd like to see some other people's rigs, I'm just starting mine.

Hi Dude I'm in Aldergrove and there are a few others in this area (Lowermainland)but I think the closest local stuff would be the Northwest guys down in Washington area but that is a good idea if someone could set something up in the Lowermainland of BC...(not me still too bussy with the race truck)

id back a west coast canada meet maybe the first langley good times cruise of the year or something my trucks nowhere near done enough to enter but wouldnt mind to meet some of the guys

Check out this thread, we are kind of organizing a meet up.
