Wow Bill...thanks for the pic! .
Great to see Curly himself in the shot...I've already printed it before it gets away! .
I'm sure your friend Dave would remember Darragh Moroney from Drag Dimensions etc...he's an old friend too and is still here in Peterboro'. .
I just noticed the jpg file of the Topelino is titled Percy...maybe can you come up with any pics of the old bomb "Percy One"...the Fiat was called "Percy Also". .

Love the Mo' pics too...I grew up down the road from Mosport so love any of these! .

Sorry Zedder...I remembered you'd had something and somehow thought it was one of Lance's cars? . Was it that you know where one is? .

Sure would like to know if anybody has any old photos ( or details about ) about my original Mo Carter L78 Camaro ( Azure Turquoise ) back in the day. Evidently the original and second owner ( both now deceased ? ) drag raced it around the Toronto, Hamilton, Ontario areas. Please help. Thanks.

This Maurice Carter stuff is like Christmas come early, thanks for the stories and pics. He was in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders regiment with my father. His ads on radio were well known in southern Ontario, the tag line was "Maurice Carter what a great, great guy!" sung in old ragtime fashion. There are still U-haul type rental trucks in the area with Carter on them, not sure if there is a connection though.

Stumbled on this through google, ebay slot car find.

The Yenko Stinger which I entered in the 2012 MCACN was built for Mo Carters dealership. By the way, it scored 998/1000 in the show.

A friend of mine (Tommy Ryan) built the ZL1 engines for Mo. I may have a pic of one on the dyno from back then - I'll look.
