hey Binnie, we saw a vette on 104 near Truro (I think) on Sunday) that looked just like yours at least from the pics you have posted. We were heading to Antigonish where my wife's family is from. We'll be back next summer for a few weeks and rent a home/cottage instead of like this yr. staying at St. FX. The only other C3 we only came across 2 other C3's on the trip from just outside of To. thru to Lunenburg. There was a white vert. though that was flying through Montreal last Sat.
I'd love to take our vert down but just not enough room and would definately have to add a/c for such a long trip. We plan on moving down in 5 years.

I had my car to a show in Windsor on Sunday so it had to be someone else. There are a couple of other yellow ones around but I have not seen any with the yellow and black side pipe covers like I have on mine. Let me know when you are down here next time and we will meet up somewhere. I will be in Ottawa sometime in September with the car.

If it was a '75 going along the Metropolitain I think I know that car.

If it was him, he was sure having fun and I was envious!

Will do Binnie, we will be coming back next July for 2 weeks then hopefully move here in 4 yrs 10 months and 25 days but hey who's counting.

We're heading back to Orangeville tomorrow morning and depression is already starting to set in.

The only one we saw on the way home yesterday was at St. Anne De Beaupre - a white and blue '80. We are still planning on moving to Antigonish in 5 years and the vette will be coming. I am still up in the air as to what work I'll do next on it as I have been thinking of dropping in a new(er) Z06 drivetrain, a/c and getting it painted.
