Hi Rick, I did talk to Oliver in the fall, he said he never owned the car. I did see some GM paperwork with Olivers name on it. Apparently John H gave the owner of the car the paperwork quite some time ago. A friend has owned the car for 20 years.
Is Oliver on this site?

Sorry. I have it in my files that Oliver owned the car at one time. I think he does visit here from time to time.

I was looking at the examples provided by Mr 70. Was the block stamped before the head was applied?

Yes.

Its been said before but especially now that the forum is setup to give a full preview of all the photos in a thread but it probably isn't wise to post up good known stamps as well as info about said stamps. But do what you want.:dunno:

Good evening everyone. I just ran across this thread. I have never owned that car but I do have GM of Canada paperwork on it. I do recall someone asking me about whether I owned it or not but don't remember who asked and didn't remember that I had paperwork on it. Getting forgetful, I guess! It was originally sold at Ted Brooks Chevrolet in Calgary. I went through my old notes from the mid nineties and have a couple names that might help the owner. PM me if someone wants to chat. Thx Oliver

Hi Oliver, PM sent.
