Like many here , I have known Dave for quite some time!
He basically built my car when he was at Powell, then went on his own.
You will not find a more honest knowledgable guy with the vettes, and any make for that matter, stop by Port Perry and see his shop, he's a great guy!

I love the new GS. Just trying to complete break in km's before track unveiling. I want to see your new Camaro 1LE. Good on you for taking the leap! It's a connoisseurs car.

P.S. Love your blog. Keep it coming.

This is what Dave's family does in their spare time. The young gun Josh (12 yrs old) is collecting quite a trophy list

That little tractor looks like it can do some serious wheelies.

It is a new build and it looks awesome. They do competitive pulls with it. Very neat!

Hi there.
Re: the left rear axle seal, it seems to be a common problem as with mine. Did you have it changed yet? If so, any more leaks?
Were you topping it off every so often?
Thanks

No more axle seal leak and no top ups needed so far.

I was at Dave’s tonight and saw this cool tractor along with some pretty cool video clips of Josh’s competitions, this guy is going to be a future star!

BTW - Dave is taking care of the Z06 valve issue for me next week. Lucky to have such an amazing shop in the GTA.

I’ve got a bigger smile since Dave Took care of the valve issue for me last week. I decided while the heads were off to put a Kate home 116 cam in. The dyno results were 518 hp and 482 lbs torque with!

Like I’ve said many times over the past years with either the new car or the old 71, we are lucky to have such an amazing shop with a guy like Dave looking our needs.

Picked my car up today. Re-built engine, new clutch and oiling mods.
Great shop, he treats the cars as if they were his own.
