2016 at the Hammond Barn

And a few of photos of Bob's C15A with Phil's fleet at the rally. I'm sorry nobody had a camera ready to capture the look of surprise and glee on Phil's face as the CMP pulled up behind him and honked.

And a few more.....

Congratulations to Bob and the crew at the Hammond Barn on getting the C15A plated and on the road. I hope to be able to see this at the big event in Kingston (Oedessa) this August.

Perhaps you can also come to Canada Day 2017 in Merrickville?

With the C15A now on the road, will the other vehicles in the assembly line at the Hammond Restoration Barn appear soon?

Job well done!

Cheers!
Stuart

Hi Bob & Grant

What a surprise that Bob should keep the progress on the truck undercover just to surprise me, I consider a singular honor.

Of course Grant was in on it as he and I had been emailing back and forth about over last month about me ordering some parts for him to save the hassle US company not shipping to Canada. Grant even had asked if there was anything they could bring down. Little did I know.

I've got some GoPro video of Bob & Grant on trail ride at the Rally, which edit and post soon.

Thanks Bob

Cheers Phil

Like Stuart said, good thing you got it plated and on the road.

Well done Bob, great to see you on the road.

The 1945 HUP is now registered, insured and plated as a Historical Vehicle. This put more onus on me to get it on the road before the snow flies. While Bob and Grant were bivouacking at Kingston today, I rolled the HUP out for a quick primer paint job. This was done to prepare for the lusterless olive green paint that I will be shooting on next week - after fixing some bondo issues that the primer revealed.
