Old Coyote Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 That's a really nice build sir ............ great details
Intmd8r Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Awesome! Not only is that a good looking build, but I'm always a sucker for a Canadian driver! Good job
bbowser Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Great model of a great driver! We watched Jean-Paul race weekly up here in VT at Thunder Road against the likes of Chuck Bown, Robby Crouch, Dick McCabe, Bobby and Beaver Dragon, Ricky Craven, Dave Dion, Kevin LePage, Randy LaJoie, and Claude LeClerc, Thank you for the memory jog!
Florent Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 This is a very nice tribute to this incredible driver. Nicely detailled and nice graphics too. Many thanks. I have seen Cabana racing here, around Montreal (and winning), and in race tracks in the province like Sanair and also at Catamount Stadium in Milton, Vermont, where he won the opening feature in 1965 and won also the last feature of the track when unfortunatly, it closed in 1987. A spectacular and intelligent driver. I have seen him racing strong against all the best drivers named by Bruce Bowser a little above. I had taken pictures of his '67 and his '68 Beaumonts (Canadian Chevelles made by Pontiac). I saw him winning the Molson 300 back in 1971 or 1972. An outstanding driver and stock car builder. I am thinking about making a tribute of his early sixties Ford Falcon.
signmike Posted April 5, 2015 Author Posted April 5, 2015 Thank you Michel, Pierre and Florent. I, too waiched Cabana at Deux Montagne, Riverside Speedway in Laval and Sanair. Ho good memories. Florent I am trying to get the infos of what was written in the rear and on the hood of that Falson. I can probably help you out with the marking and decals...
