The Royal Canadian Motorcycle Patrol: The Royal Canadian Motorcycle Patrol Visits Terry Howson's Old School Body Shop

The Royal Canadian Motorcycle Patrol paid a visit to Terry Howson on this day to discuss and document Terry's body shop business and forthcoming sale. The property where Terry has had his business for the last 35 years is being sold and Terry must vacate the premises by the end of March. Terry has a large compliment of old and unique tools. Most of these tools will be thrown into a dumpster and taken to a metal yard where they will be sold by the pound for scrap. If there are any items, that members would like to purchase from Terry, please contact Patrolman Taylor via email to get Terry's contact information. There is a lot of cool canadiana here in Terry's shop. It would be a shame to see all of it go to the scrap yard.

This is Terry's shop. From the road you would never think of all the work that goes on inside.
