The other day I decided to snap some photos of a FEW of the rad vehicles that litter the streets of my hood. Since moving here I have been amazed by the vast amount of cool old vehicles. There are many rare stylish old cars, but there are also tons of old everyday cars that you just don't see in Ontario. I think that there are two things that keep old vehicles alive in Vancouver. Firstly, because the climate is truly amazing, cars don't rust-out. Secondly there is no automotive safety law which allows the beaters to remain on the streets. Also, because there are so many of these cars, they are often dirt cheap. $500 will get you a reliable old Volvo or Toyota.
