I've seen J-swapped civics before but not one with a giant blower like this one. However, all that work and they didn't colour match the engine bay? Even it that was intentional it just looks incomplete to me.

an old CJ in Bloomfield that was restored mint & then some.

It's incredible how tiny CJs and YJs look now.

Saw a Polestar 2 "in the wild" today, but only got a quick glimpse.  Followed this Lotus Evora for a bit as well...

I have not seen either one of those here in Winnipeg.

This is the best I could do today: Chevy Malibu SS, possibly a 2006 - that's when the little GM badge reappeared.

Not quite on the weekend, but feels like the weekend since we're on vacation.

Ditto, and I was in the same general area. Spent a day around Kingston, then a week in PEC for some well-deserved beach time  :). Back is better, got tested - carefully - carrying canoes and kayaks accross the road to our private, rented beach on Lake Ontario.

Plenty of classic cars driving around the County, but I was mostly fascinated with the high number of clean Squarebodies still obviously used as trucks! Lots of classic americana, highlights are a restomod mid-60's Impala wagon and a late C1 'Vette, plus dune buggies at Sandbanks.

Too bad we didn't know we were both there at the same time, could've met up for a beer or wine somewhere in the area.

I like the green MG B. I wonder if its a converted RB car as it seems to be sitting high.

I miss my 1975 Beetle so much.  It's been 35 years.

This one is an early '60s unit, looks to be in nice shape!

Always interesting cars in that driveway. Used to have a LS600h and a bunch of other stuff, yesterday was two 911's parked beside the jeep

As a 10yr old that is acceptable. As an adult, it's a sign of mental illness.

This is the fellow here, certainly quirky:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J65wcxclREI

Seemed like a good sh*t, however he passed away this spring at 50. From Reddit (Stollery is the childrens hospital in Edm):

Came here to say this - He spent time at the Stollery dressed as Captain America. I used to have his card - can't remember where it went though... Awesome guy either way! Kids love it!

He was my ENT, he passed away a few months ago sadly. RIP. Amazing doctor and human
