| 2010-02-09 - 1936 Stainless Steel Ford- A MUST READ! |
This is the 1936 Ford Tudor Sedan built for and owned by Allegheny Ludlum Steel. This is 1 of only 4 in existence and is the only one currently in running & in road worthy condition. The car is in exceptional condition, with the interior and even the frame looking great. All 4 cars each had over 200,000 miles on them before they removed them from service.

| 2009-08-07 - Crosby brings the cup home |
Sidney Crosby celebrated his 22nd birthday party with thousands of local fans as he travelled in a vintage naval fire truck, displaying the Stanley Cup during a parade in his hometown of Cole Harbour, N.S. on Friday. After a thrilling 2-1 game seven win Sidney became the youngest player to captain his team to the Stanley Cup. We were there to witness the event on the sunny afternoon with the NHL's top prize in tow as Sidney returned home to a hero's welcome. An estimated 25,000 people turned out for a parade through Cole Harbour — Crosby's hometown. As he thanked the crowd, fans serenaded the hockey star with the Happy Birthday song.

| 2009-07-14 - MaritimeClassicCars.com Nova wins again at Moncton Nationals |
MaritimeClassicCars.com 78 Nova made it's second visit to the Moncton Nationals and for the second time in a row, came home with one of the major prizes.
 Along with almost 1,800 other classic cars, and gorgeous weather for Friday & Saturday, we almost ended up coming home with a the new Chevy GM crate engine again!! With two prizes left to draw for, the numbers were drawn for the engine and a custom made classic car bed. I had heard two numbers drawn and neither one was mine so I thought it was over. With the rules being that you had to be in attendence to win, one of the prizes needed to have another number drawn. That next number was mine. As I was walking up to the stage, I wasn't sure which number had been drawn for again... my thought was "oh my god, did I win the engine again!!". But it was not to be, I had actually won the classic car bed. It is of a 1969 Cutlass and is valued at $1200. I do not have any young boys that I could give it to, so I am taking offers on the bed. Let me know if you are interested. |

| 2008-07-14 - MaritimeClassicCars.com Nova wins big at Moncton Nationals |
This year was the first year that the MaritimeClassicCars.com 78 Nova attended the Moncton Nationals and it turned out to be a worthwhile visit.
 Along with 1810 other classic cars, and gorgeous weather both days, we ended up coming home with a brand spanking new Chevy GM crate engine. It was a 350 HO Deluxe with 330 horse power. The MaritimeClassicCars.com Nova is an all orginal matching numbers car and a difficult decision now has to be made... do I keep it original or drop the new 350 into her. Well after some further investigation of the power of this new engine and my existing drive train setup, it looks like it would take more work and dollars to drop this engine into the Nova than anticipated. The engine has been sold. |
