Thank you, but money thrown in the trash
Pretty interesting to me... my Dad had a '64 Windsor 4 door with the oval steering wheel and push button trans. As a kid I helped him change the piston rings in the driveway - still smoked anyway, LOL. We pulled a popup trailer to Red Point Beach for our first big family vacation. Years ago, I went to look at a '64 New Yorker 2 door hardtop (one of 300 built for CDN market). Same leather bucket seats & console and half leather top as the 300K shown in your video including the 413 with ram horn manifolds but in NY'er trim. Not many of these in as great shape as the 300K. Thanks for posting the video - it was great to see the 300 and go down memory lane.👍👍
Thanks for the comment. Perhaps that engine in your dad's 64 Windor needed valve guides more than it needed rings?
@@BlueShankPEI You're right about the worn guides. I remember helping him with it in the dark & past bedtime since he needed the car to go to work. Pretty sure he only lapped the valves with compound and the CTC sucker cup "tool" rolled between his hands.
Nice 🛞 wheels. Wonder if they come in 13" 😊
I dont know but I'm sure you could have a look at the Cragar Wheels website for an answer.
1 year ago ? 4. $ALE?
This car belongs to a friend and I don't think he has it up for sale.
I own 1963 comet 😊
Cool. You should post a video of it.
use to be alot old high school parties on that road back in the 80s
Looks just like the kind of place for such activities.
... I bought a running 1953 Dodge Regent four door, about two months ago ... I guess I should post some clips on CZcams now ... Sure would love to locate a set of fender skirts & a sun visor ! ... Best regards ...
Gorgeous!
When I was a kid a neighbor got a Smokey and the Bandit Trans Am edition car when the movie came out.. We kids used to always check it out. Te owner finally took us for a ride. We had the time of our life. He smoked the tires. We felt like Burt Reynolds was driving.
Sounds like you had a cool neighbor!
63 Comet was my first car (in 1974 of course). It didn’t turn a lot of heads but I had a lot of teenage memories in that car. Had it painted candy apple red similar to this car.
That would indeed be a good color for it.
Nice!😊 I have a 68 camaro.
Owned that one for long?
Good while.14yrs.
That's one badass car my friend
I'm sure the owner is very proud of it!
It needs stuffed Lucy and Ricki dolls and a long trailer.
My dad had one like this for his first car but it he got in a crash and it was totally ruined
Being wrecked seems to be the fate of many "first cars".
@@BlueShankPEI yes he crash and went flying out the window he survived tho but then he bought a 1964 ford galaxie and it goes like a dream 👍🏻
Beautiful car aka AMC Charger :) too bad no stick :( Were mudflaps and curb feelers a factory option?
Marlins were cool. My next door neighbor had a brand new one when I was growing up. It was like a rocket ship in those days. A bold move by AMC, but never as cool as the Charger it was competing against.
Found Scott's "chick-magnet" motor laying about? It's interesting to think that not so long ago people bought these as an improvement to their working arrangements - seems like almost a sort of ancient history, although it wasn't so long ago (my Grandpa's time) that they were using teams of bullocks to drag things about on farms as a course of usual practice.
I doubt I could run off with the six banger out of that old Ford. My father was from the era when horses were common and everyday on farms, engines like these were not terribly common and primarily used for threshing or sawing wood. A lot of the old timers really loved the horses, apparently both my grand fathers were quite the horse men.
Love a dirt/gravel road, I always seek them out in a trip -- great fun. That one looks like it's in need of a grade!
Yep, it could use some work. We had a lot of rain over the last two weeks, and there is a construction debris disposal site halfway down the road, the heavy trucks are not kind to the road.
looks like brudenell car show or west point was at classic car show summerside last weekend all my friends had there cars in it billy cemore scott john and radar you know who i mean
This video was taken at the Brudenell show last year. With the poor weather this year I did not go.
I have red clay in my blood. Born in Summerside (but live somewhere else)
Summerside sure is changing......
@@BlueShankPEI yep sure is different from when I walked the streets in the 1950's. Going to the Saturday matinees at the local theatre was a treat.
What a buety!
It's certainly a tidy example.
I just checked the pictures and I was at a different show the same month, but at the same place and saw the same car. In my pictures the blue car on the left is not there. Instead there was a black late 1920s coupe, thats how I knew it was a different show.
We are in the middle of show season so it's not hard to get the various shows mixed up.
@@BlueShankPEI Yes. We were actually over at the Brudenell show just last week! On Saturday July 29th. It was perfect weather, warm but a little overcast so not too sunny. Some of my favourites there this time were a 1955 Pontiac (Red), 1964 Buick Lesabre (Gold), and a new car (to me) that I had never seen or heard of. I generally am not a fan of Fords but it was a Galaxie Starliner Convertible. I should have got a picture of the sheet because it shows the year and model.
@@Combatarms4234 I should have attended that show on Saturday like you did, but I made the mistake of waiting until Sunday and ended up not going as the forecast was for rain.
@@BlueShankPEI Oh ya. Well to be fair its good that you have attended a number of shows. Certainly more than me. But ya sometimes it just doesn't work that way. I enjoyed the show, got a little sunburnt not too much though. I thought there was a lot of cars there more than other times, but I heard someone else say there weren't many. To me it's a lot of cars, but maybe in comparison to the shows largest attendance makes that one seem small.
I was at this show, and took pictures of this car. Exact same license plate. The file date on my photo says July 27th 2023 (a thursday). July 3rd 2023 was on a Monday. However I think I remember this being on a weekend like most car shows, so maybe we are both wrong on the date. July 3rd is possible since it was technically a Holiday, as Canada day was on Saturday. But most car shows don't happen on a Monday, would you agree?
Dogs sure do know how to chill
Yeah, they are certainly expert at it!
Beautiful 63! Has SS hubcap but is not an SS without engine turned side trim, tailight panel, and bucket seats/console. I would still be proud to own this Impala!
Also your video says it was September August 9th. What month was it again? I could find out if I look back at my pictures
Sorry for the typo, I have corrected the description. The show was held September 9th.
@@BlueShankPEI No problem. Thanks for the upload.
There are a few mistakes in the description - This is a Canadian built car. The last year of the US built Saratoga was 1960, not 1962. There was no factory A/C option available on the Canadian models in 1962. Torqueflite was standard equipment on all Canadian production 1962 Chryslers. There was no manual shift available. There was no Saratoga station wagon built, all wagons in 1962 were either the US built Newport or the New Yorker. On the US built 1962 Newport you could get a manual shift but it was a 3 speed on the floor, not on the column. There was no room to install the a shift lever at the top of the column in front of the astra-dome. The 383 was standard equipment on the Saratoga, and the US built Windsor. The 318 was NOT available on any Chrysler model until around 1975 when it was available in the Cordoba. Until then it was a Dodge and Plymouth only engine. The 361 engine was standard on the Canadian WIndsor and the US Newport. :-)
Me and my Dad were at this car show in Sherwood. I saw this one, but would rather have a 61, 300G. The best car in the show IMO was the 58 Cadillac Series 62 2 door.
Very nice. My dad had a 68 comet
Looks like a nice one!
It certainly looks like it. This one belongs to one of my brothers friends, he's really big into militaria.
Don’t get any better than barracuda
Had a baby blue convertible 1957 model in high school. Great little car and I loved it.
I thought the rear trunk lid panel was supposed to be black? Still nice car.
That's more than I could tell you.
@@BlueShankPEI When looking in a parts catalog the Barracuda S panel is black but maybe it is not on a black car. Why do i say this? I also own a 1965 impala and black cars had a different trim panel color on the back. i am restoring or shall i say resto modding a 69 440 Cuda S and i will have a black panel on the back because it fits MY LOOK or version of said car just like i will have a manual transmission in it even if the factory did not allow one to be factory installed because of too much power in front of it. Look at other factory S cars and they seem to be always black panels. Maybe this owner of this beauty likes the polished version better? No matter it is still a really nice car and he is happy with it and that is what counts after all.
Nice touch adding the view from the ferry. Thank You!
Thanks. It took a bit of digging to find that old footage. I had planned to shoot some new footage on my way home but got to the terminal to discover that the crossings for the rest of the day had been cancelled due to some sort of technical problems.
Thanks for this video! Would it be okay to use a few shots from this video in my upcoming music video?
Sure.
I've owned two US made 66 Valiants. The body of this car is quite different from my cars: the front grill is entirely different, and the rear is quite different in design. I didn't know these differences were so marked.
No look at the engine.. disappointing
Oh no, I'm devastated!
What's the best time of year to visit this area? I'd love to drive this bridge. The longest bridge I have ever crossed is the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge in California which is 7 miles long.
The best weather is generally July to August, however that is also the busiest time of the year. September can have nice weather and the number of tourists falls off then so that would be the month I would say is best for visiting.
What are you asking for this car?
I'm not sure why you would think it is for sale. This is not my car, and to the best of my knowledge it is not currently for sale.
Beautiful in black, my 78 is white, love it!
Black does look terrific when clean but it sure is hard to keep looking clean. White is much more forgiving in that respect.
wow amazing colours there through the eclipse
Yes indeed. The camera does not even come close to showing how amazing it looked in person.

Thanks for video ❤
No problem, thanks for watching.
What a nice looking lighthouse! I like the colour accents around the windows.
Yep, it is a handsome structure. I think the first time I was down at this one was when I was a little kid and it helped spark my interest in lighthouses.
Having owned a 1962 s-22 comet, I would love to have it back.
How long ago did you own that?
@@BlueShankPEI It's been a long time ago.
Fast and fine car. Flags on the fender say 327. I was afraid I was about to see a 2-spd. p-glide as the camera swung inside the car.
Yes, truly a fine example, and I expect it will move swiftly down the road when required.
too bad they allow modern cars in "classic" car shows, like that 0:54 White BMW. 0:44. To me most cars these days are just plastic. I can appreciate that 55 Desoto, and many other classic vintage cars in this video. My favourite classic car I would say Is a 1961 Chrysler 300G, black, two door hardtop. (Jay leno has one) Its on youtube. They are a rare car, there were only 1280, and 300 something were convertibles.
I suspect that they let in modern cars as they just don't want to turn anyone away in an effort to keep a positive image for the event..
I saw this exact car this summer at Brudenell Car show. Never heard of a Franklin car to be honest
They are a pretty rare car, and certainly a rare one to see on the Island.
Wow. I saw a 1963 Impala SS in PEI this Summer at a car show! It was a red one though, and was a four door. At The Brudenell car show, it was beautiful. I like how the back headlights looks like a grill haha
This two door is an exceptionally good looking car, IMO. The Brudenell car show was a good one, it will be nice when car show season rolls around again when the warm weather returns.
Thank you for the response! Yes the car show there is a special place . Also I wanted to note, I can appreciate the straight uninterupted line along the edge of the impalas. Very cool@@BlueShankPEI
You just uploaded the 1963 impala I saw and was talking about. Very sharp car. My pictures it looks like the back trunk is open the tiniest bit even in your video. Maybe the trunk isn't shut, or its misalligned
