Hello from Canada

Hi guys,
I live in Ontario and owned a 77 Supreme 403-T-Top from 86 til 90 when my Dad decided to tangle with a train. TOTALLED .
I just recently acquired another 77, and although not exactly what I wanted, is close enough.
I will be rebuilding this one, and hopefully I will be able to enjoy some cruizin' this summer.

I will be in need of parts (mainly interior), so hopefully this forum will be able to point me in the right direction.

Thanks,

Roy

I love how the first car was totaled by a train and you mention it was totaled ... but completely neglect to mention whether or not your Dad made it out in one piece. Roy, I admire your priorities.

Yeah he survived. The train wasnt going fast. It was a blind level crossing with no lights or arms. He started across, saw the train, went to put it in reverse and hit park instead.

Ripped the front end off the car.

Welcome to the site - I'd love to find a t-top '77 Supreme. And a '59 ScenicCoupe. And a '66 Jetstar 88 Holiday Coupe. And '64 98 Sport Coupe...

Hi Roy,
Good to have you here, I'm just a few hours North from you ( Snow belt region ) Looking forward to following along with your restoration. I have been at my 76 for a few years now.
If you have any question's, Just ask away I myself or many here should be able to help.
Paladin( Brett) would be a good source for parts here.
Cheers
Eric
