Just moved to Red Deer a little while back, and I'm wondering how bad the Alberta Out of Province safety really is, the guys at work were saying its pretty tough. I drive a '91 Chevy Halfton. Anyone know where a good place to get it safetied in the area would be? And also a good place to insure it? The truck just passed a Manitoba safety about 3 months ago.

Ya working/apprenticing as a welder out in Red Deer now. School didn't work out for me, definetly wasn't my thing. Sold the black Volvo now too, got a '91 HD Half and just picked up an '87 Vette. Is that yours in your picture? How do you like it?

No I haven't tried yet. I think I'll keep my Manitoba plates on as long as I can for now. At least until I get my vette on the road and need to insure it, or maybe I'll put it in the ol' ladys name, still not too sure yet. I've seen that JDM Z driving around, thats the RHD one right?

Ohh I see. I think the one I seen was Silver. Are there alotta quick cars around here? Since I've got here all I've seen is lotsa quick Diesels, but not too much for cars at all.

Sleepers eh.. I love sleepers, always have. What are some of the ones that are around here? And some cars to watch out for? Also are there ever little meets in the summertime, somewhere to get to know some other car guys?

I moved to Edmonton from Toronto in March and I brought my car over. They are strict here. I talked to the mechanic and he said basically your car has to be as good as a new one.
