MAGIC MUFFLER Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 I've heard the event organizer gave up on the show and it's no longer going to take place. Then I heard someone else is possibly taking over and will do the show again. There was something in the Times Colonist paper recently about it. I grew up in beautiful Victoria so this is my hood!!! That Inner Harbor is amazing! NOTE: - The last picture you show of the yellow roadster shows the Hotel Grand Pacific in the background where the Model Show will take place July 17th.

Hi Billy, it would be a great time to visit your home town! Victoria is a great setting for the event with cars arriving on the ferry starting on Thursday and events planned for the entire weekend. Sunday is the finale with the show and shine around the harbour. It’s been home for nearly forty years and has grown from a sleepy town into a thriving city! While the event is held every three years, this may be the last edition, largely due to the aging population of the participants, it would be very sad to see it fade away. Hope you’ll make the drive up the coast! Cheers Misha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phildaupho Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Deuce Days in Scale was a fabulous model car display with a steady stream of spectators all day. There were about 175 models on the tables with an emphasis on Deuces but also cars of all genres 1972 and older. It was a fantastic Deuce Days with something like 500 Deuces parked around the Inner Harbour with another 700+ 1952 vehicles and tens of thousands spectators checking out the fabulous cars.
