Wow, what a blast!
« on: April 28, 2006 - 01:26:51 AM »
Vancouver area ROCKS, let me tell you! 
 :canada:
just got back from an incredible visit with camjam! I was in Vancouver on a business trip, got to meet camjam, have dinner with him and his wife and he took me on a tour of Vancouver (see some pics below)  But not only that - perhaps most importantly, I got to see his gorgeous hemi -orange 71 Challenger!  AND we went cruising around in it!


camjam makes a pass


We went up in a canyon area -  the steep hills posed no problem for camjam's strong 383!


It was awesome cruising around-  this car is sweeet!

Here's a couple of shots I took on camjam's tour of Vancouver


This view down by the harbor provided a good view of the skyline


this is up in the west vancouver area looking down where the cruise ships come in


Camjam and I pose with downtown vancouver in the background-
Camjam was very patiant with his "tourist" friend


This is one of 10 hemi orange 383 Challengers built specifically for Canada. for those who have been on the board for a long time, you know how involved this restoration was!  Well let me tell you- it looks brand new!
The ride in it was a blast! Thank you Camjam for graciously giving your time and making this trip truly memorable!

I love Vancouver and wish I could visit this summer.  I have a few friends up there, but somehow I always seem to visit in the dead of winter!  Great city though, and I love the vibe up there.  Really mellow and the people are so nice.  Cool trip!

It is always a lot of fun to tour the city and see it through the eyes of someone who hasn't seen Vancouver before. You discover things you haven't seen or have forgotten.
It was a pleasure to take a fellow Challenger enthusiast for a tour in the Challenger. Thanks for the praise Redline.
I think I will always have this mental picture of Redline with his jaw down at his knees as we drove into the hills around Vancouver and got to see the panoramic views.
