Folks Of Interest BobK broke down, Ft Nelson British Columbia

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Tman, Jul 28, 2013.

  1. Bob and Maggie are broke down outside of Ft Nelson BC. Sounds like a wheel bearing. He has parts and a rollback coming but needs a place to work on the convertible.

    Anybody up there that can help?

    There is a Hamber who is a "Mountie", but does not live in that area.
    Maybe he will pick up this thread however.
     
  9. I'm sure it will be just part of the adventure and another good story.
    Bump.

    Fort Nelson isn't very big but there are lots of repair shops.
    They will take care of him and will be gentle.
    While there, he can visit the Alcan museum.

    The mile zero cruisers in Dawson creek have a Facebook page. If someone has access a post on the page may get a response. I am in Vancouver and on the road today and do not have access to facebook. Hope everything works out.

    Just talked to Bob ,they are headed for Nelson on a roll back.He is in good hands.i sent him to the museum to visit the ole timer (marl) it will make this little break down go smooth as silk and we can expect some photos :D
     
  22. Thanks to all who posted, you Canadians are all right after all! ;)

    Bob has talked to the museum guy, they are also going to some car guys shop to asses the issue. Bob thinks it might be more than a wheel bearing, maybe a broken A arm. He will post an update tonight. I'll let you know if I hear any more before then. Thanks again, Trent

    40 standard....we know you were trying to help.

    Just under 5 million folks in B.C. but most along the 49th parallel (USA/Canada border)

    But, there are car nuts in just about every nook and cranny in our large province and it looks like Bob has hooked up with one in Fort Nelson.
