Wandering Leopard in Vancouver BC 2023

Back in BC

It’s that time of the year, where I drop off the wife and kids to Vancouver BC for the summer. I love Vancouver BC if you didn’t know! I was only there for a few days, but I was able to do some car stuff.

Friday night, I went to the Richmond Night Market near the closing time. I ended up getting some kind of food poisoning as in the early morning I had stomach pains and that whole day Saturday I had a fever and lightheadedness.

After I recovered (thank goodness), I started to hit people up.

 

Sunday Night

I usually meet up with my Felix (Vankulture Canada) and I tried to do that, but he was at work. After I recovered, I stopped by Sunday night to hang out at his office.

Felix’s Sienna is one of a kinda and I love it!!! It was good to chat with my brother as usual!

 

Monday afternoon

While it was Juneteenth in the US (official Holiday), it was a normal work day in Canada. I messaged a few friends and some of them were busy. I was able to meet up with Lance (Hata Gallery). I met him last year during the summer touring.

His neighbor had an OG Junction Produce VIP LS 400. It is a LEGIT JP car that they imported back to Japan and used as a demo/magazine/promo car.

 

 


Afterwards, we went to Richmond to meet with Aki-san. While I didn’t take a picture of him, he was at work and we chatted for a bit.

 

 

Next door to Aki-san’s work was another shop that had some cool cars!

 


 

Afterwards, Lance took me to Printing Yes. Josh rolled up with his Altezza and this picture was perfect!

 

 


 

After we went back to Lance’s house, he let me check out his collection of stuff. it was really cool as he gots a lot of cool stuff from Japan and from the older era. He also had some awesome magazines!!!
