Default Old Quebec Speed Shops

Wasn't sure where to post this.

I'm trying to track down previous owners of my LS-6. A fellow forum member suggested I try to contact speed shops in the area where the car was originally delivered, which was Quebec City. I tried to contact 2 shops there by email, but both of them got kicked back. These are the two:

http://www.brossardperformance.com/

Anybody have another email for either of these shops?

I'd get telephone numbers and call them directly.

You're going to want to talk to guys who have been around for a while... That pretty much dictates that they are going to be older (and perhaps not so tech savvy).

It's also easier to blow off an email.

I'd use the phone.

Regards,

Stan Falenski

You may run into that, but that isn't always the case. One of the companies that I work for does some business in Quebec... Many speak English or have English speaking employees on staff.

Even if you do run into a language issue, you can check the local high school or community college to see if French is offered... You might be able to retain the services of a French teacher/professor as a translator for a fee.

Regards,

Stan

Hi,
I'm amazed each year by how much French I hear being spoken in the swap area at Carlisle!
Regards,

You could contact NCRS-Quebec for advice. I am not sure why the web site is still 2014 but I believe they are still active.
