Taking advantage of a perfect sunset . And a 100 km drive this evening
( click on pic)

Ten mile circuit around the peninsula.

Took her out to a local coffee ‘n cars to meet my buddy’s latest acquisition, an Austin Healey Sprite. The interesting thing for me is how “big” the ‘68 2000 looks next to the Sprite (which I believe is a ‘68 also). The Sprite also has a tiny motor in comparison. We had a fun drive to breakfast afterwards.

Saturday cruise

Took Sora to Hidden Villa. Moody Rd. is fun!

Been a great spring and summer of top down driving… 3600km to date,(last year 4200 km) but as the weather slowly turns I decided to put the top up today to extend my driving season just a bit longer. Parked it for the winter last year on October 15. Perhaps a bit longer this fall. Fingers crossed . After some head work last winter, this driving season has been completely trouble free. Car ran great. No big projects planned for this winter hibernation… but something always comes up. More play in the steering than I’d like, so I’ll be investigating that I’m sure. Cars n coffee this Sunday with the local Edmonton Z Car club. Last one of the season

Perfect fall day in central Alberta. 150 km jaunt through the colours of fall.

A short cruise near the San Diego Bay. Foggy!

One last fall drive through the fall colours before parking the roadster for its long winter sleep. A perfect fall day in Alberta . Lil roadster ran great all summer!!!
A final wash before winter park. Filled the tank, changed the oil. See ya in April 2025

Went for a quick cruise in the morning fog.

Beautiful weekend weather last Sunday went for a drive...



These photos were taken 22 years apart, in my folk's driveway...Sora still going strong!

Awesome side by side. Cool!

The weather has been unusually mild and dry this fall..so far. So why not wake the Roadster up after putting it to bed for a long winter sleep. Down goes the lid, up goes the heater setting.
So out on the road with roof down early Sunday morning . 5 degrees Celsius , that’s 41 F for those south of the border.
Rob’s Roadster in front as we do a spirited drive through Downtown Edmonton Alberta.
Driving over the HighLevel bridge in Edmonton. The bridge was built between 1910-1913


Ended up at a funky lil coffee shop for cars and coffee with 15 other Datsuns,Nissans, Infinitis.


My red 68,2000. Rob’s blue 69 2000. Both mikuni equipped. Both a sh#! Load of fun .
It was a great turnout to the Edmonton Z car club cars n coffee. One of the latest fall meets we have had. Hmmm global warming?????
Who knows, if a warm weekend happens in November, another cars n coffee????

Taking advantage of the unusually warm late October day here in Southern Ontario. Took a run along the Niagara River just south of the falls.
Probably the last drive before putting the roadster to bed for the winter.

Beautiful car - shame it has to be put away for months!
