2016 at the Hammond Barn

Keep that thought Stuart- I'm sure we could provide two or three from Kingston.

Today at the barn, we had the pleasure of the company of Jason Ginn and his father, who dropped by to take Geoff Winnington-Ball's famous F15 to its new home in nearby Osgoode, Ontario. Ginn Restorations has moved from Arnprior to Osgoode, which is good for us Hammond Barn types, as the shop is much closer to us now. During our gab session Jason gave an outline of some of the services that will be available in the future, which included a machining capability. We were pleased to hear this!

Initially, we tried to load the stubborn F15 onto Jason's trailer, but it was not a good fit and fought us all the way. Instead, we loaded Bob's trailer in record time and the Ginns knitted the truck down safely with a good amount of straps. Then it was off to Osgoode. Upon their return, we loaded a good number of Ford parts onto Jason's trailer - again in record time. A chat session took place and once everyone was up to date, the Ginns made their way back to the shop.

It was a good day - the F15 will receive the treatment it deserves, and another CMP truck will live to roll again in the future. Where ever he may be, Geoff I am sure, is smiling...

That's good to hear and I'm sure it would get a thumbs up from Geoff!
