On CanAm weekends at Mosport, Nurse's shop was home to the UOP Shadows on at least one occasion as I saw one of the cars there. Being big block and black sure made for one ominous looking racer. GM also had truck loads of spare parts parked behind the GM Oshawa parts and service building on the same weekends. You can only guess at what all was in those trailers.
Having started in GM in 1965, I couldn't have started at a better time. Being fortunate enough to start out with a decent paying job, I was able to enjoy more than my share of factory muscle. They were the best of times for us at least. Now we are reliving it all over again. Retiring as of December 1, will give me lots of time to get the old Chevelle and el Camino whipped into shape. Shouldn't be bored for the next couple of years.
