Good day Chris, Indeed there was... In the early 80's Calgary's Ferrari dealer was Select Auto. In the mid to late 70's Edmonton's Ferrari Dealer was Devonion Motors (used to be located at 112st and Jasper Ave). Cheers, Sam
Select Auto used to be on Centre Street and then they moved and went to just off of Edmonton Trail up in the NE. I remember driving past them in the mid 80's when the TR came out.........it was the first time I saw a couple of red ones in their showroom............
Sam, I bought my 79 Fiat Spider from them when I was at university. I still have it. 137,000km and, quite simply, my most reliable car.
Very cool! Interestingly, I am still run into one of the ol' sales people from Devonion from time to time. When I meet up with him we reminisce about Devonion and the cool cars that were and are around. Indeed, a time long past. Congrats on your Spider and good for you for keeping it... as there are not too many driving around these days! Cheers, Sam

The cars will be at his shop. The mechanics are working long hours and last week there was a lot of work let to do. My hats off to them for the long hours and hard work that they do. This saturday is when he said to come by and preview the mods to their cars and customer cars. I am in McMurray until Friday, see my family and we will cruise done saturday morning, weather permitting.
I will be ther for sure. If anyone can find me there, say hi. my number is 780 722 8843, give me a shout when you get there if you would like to meet up.
Anyone from Edmonton driving their cars down there, will call you when I arrive, stopping off in Red Deer for their swap meet, I have some race pistons and rods I want to get rid of some extras I have for a 383 stroker chevy. If there are any forum member in Edmonton who is interested in going for the occassional cruise on sunny days this summer message me.
Does anyone know if Dan or the rest of the ZR guys may be there? I wouldn't mind talking to them. Also, does anyone know what time this thing starts and ends?
