Greeting from canada, i have just imported a 1967 Vitesse Saloon from Switzerland (LHD)all original and wonder if there are many other owners of Vitesses in Canada or the States. I'm in the Vancouver area

Hi Paul-

I have a Couple of Sports 6 (Vitesse). In fact, have bought some Bond parts from you to fit to them! I have a Saloon and a Convertible. Your saloon is very nice looking. I never thought about importing one from Switzerland. Was it difficult?

Leon, I think I remember you. You used to have a GT6 Blue if I remember. You wee up here for a All Triumph Drive In some time ago. I also have a TR250 which is resting while I play wiht the Vitesse. Maybe I'll bring it to ATDI next year when the Portland puts on the event.

N o importing collector cars is pretty simple. Just $$$$$$ are involved. Seems everyone wants a piece of the transaction especially the Port of entry.

Hi Paul,

I have never owned a GT6, but it's not important.

I hope to be at the next ABFM in Portland, OR in September, all things being equal.

Regards

Leon

Len are your going to the ATDI in Forest Grove this year? If I ever get my carbs sorted out on my Vitesse I wil be there. IF not I will bring my 250.

What is the date of the ATDI?

I do like Forest Grove, but it is almost the same distance as the ABFM on labor day weekend, and as that is a much bigger event, and I will likely only afford the gas for one trip, I will probably go to that instead.

(in a perfect world, I would go to both, but need to stay married!)

Best Regards

Leon

Hi Paul,

I have a 1963 Vitesse, owned for the last 36 years. I met you at the British Field meet in Redmond, Washington last year. Hope to see you again this summer.

Best,
Charlie Frick
