Brian Driggs at Gearbox Magazine contacted me a couple weeks back, saying he'd never really gotten over Ari and his Chamonix, so he trawled about delica.ca and saw my latest rig. Sent me a bunch of questions to answer, we emailed back and forth, and this is what I wrote...

Re: Mitsubishi Gearbox Magazine and another Canadian JDM!
Good interview, Mararmeisto. A positive view. I would have thought you might mention that many parts on the Mitsubishis are also found on other NA vehicles ~ but still, I think that was a very positive contribution to the RHD community.
Well done!
Falco.

Re: Mitsubishi Gearbox Magazine and another Canadian JDM!
Handsome bastard!
And JP looks good too also!
I think JP looks so serious because he is about
to make that connection with Monty like in
the movie "Avatar".I had a hunch those
little fender mirrors were important........
Really nice write up and photos for sure!
The Japanese License plate thing is way
too cool man!
Right On!

Re: Mitsubishi Gearbox Magazine and another Canadian JDM!
Guessing your social calendar will be far too full to go camping with us common folk now! (At least according to your publicity agent) - Even if you are not booked, I don't know if we want to pay the appearance fee!mararmeisto wrote:kb&2dogs wrote:Paul, can I have your autograph???![]()
