The first Wednesday of the month, has become a very popular
one. One of the many reasons why this has happened is due
to the Owner of the Cote St-Luc B.B.Q. Mr. Alain Camus.
What he has done to make us all happy, besides serving us
a delicious BBQ chicken, has been the addition of two large
TV’s one in each corner of the dining area where we meet.
This gives us the opportunity to review some of the clubs
videos.
Parking for our precious cars is without question the best
of all the places I have been for club meetings. The cars
surround the restaurant. We can see them from our tables.
After we fill ourselves, we head outside to the parking
area and talk, I know you have a hard time to believe this,
but we talk cars. Look at the cars, open the bonnets, open
the doors and look inside while the owners explain some
of the special things about his or her car.
A fun thing happened the Wednesday of June 6th, 2000. Daniel
with his Messerschmitt,
was giving tours at $5.00 a ride. As you all know Daniel
is in the process of restoring his Citroën Cabriolet, and
the paint job was done by no other Mr. Richard Grenon, do
I have to say more, why the tours. We all stood in line
and as you can see by the photos on their arrivals all of
the passengers were very happy. Our Prominent Editor, our
illustrious, world renowned and Citroën expert, Richard,
and last but not least, a fanatic of the Deux Chevaux, who
thought that the Deux Chevaux was about as small as you
can get for a family car. Low and behold the Messerschmitt.
As you can see by the picture Michel is amazed.
Now, for the last picture of the Messerschmitt going down
Jean Talon with a passenger in the back seat. I do not know
who it was, as I was leaving to go back home, but was told
later that he was so happy that Daniel had a port a potty
in the Messerschmitt, but still enjoyed the ride.
Jokes apart, this is one beautiful little car and Daniel
should be congratulated for the work he has put into this
car to get these results.
I am not sure if Daniel will be coming back to the B.B.Q.
as he did very well that night.
Another site that was worth seeing, was Richard and his
wife Louise taking a test-drive in the Denis's
Citroën 2CV "Fourgonnette" (panel). Richard took
advantage of having the panel truck to deliver car parts
to his friends.
