I am a vintage car fan who recently found your web sight for "THE GSM STABLE" of cars.  I thought you might be interested in knowing that there is one car in Canada that I am aware of.

This car was brought into Canada in the very early sixties, I believe, by the present owners father.  The Delta is a 1958 model.  The rather grainy pictures of the car sitting on a trailer was taken by me at Mosport International Raceway just North East of Toronto in 1961 by myself.  I was much younger at the time.

The other pictures were taken at the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix of 2004.  This event is run through Schenley Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  Everything for this event is donated by various companies in the greater Pittsburgh area.  Admission and all the food are free, the only request is that you make a donation to charity.  This event has been going on since 1983 and has raised a very large some of money for the two charities they support.  This event is fully supported by the city and the city unions who donate their time and park.  Over the years I understand that several millions of U.S. Dollars have been raised by these racers.

The GSM Delta in the pictures is owned by the original owners son, James Shelton, who lives in a town known as Newmarket just North of Toronto.

I am forwarding a copy of the pictures to him and information on your web sight.  I must apologise for the picture quality.  I'm sure it's my lack of ability not my camera.

All the Best,

David Jenkins
