Mr. Henry, a resident of Cop- pins Corners, who owns and op- erates Manchester Collision spent the past four years restor- ing his 1970 Olds Rallye 350. Upon encouragment from friends he decided to enter it in the Custom Car Show at the To- ronto International Centre, which was held in early March. The three-day show, the larg- est in North America, is the granddaddy of custom car shows, according to friend and employee Glen Tustin. Mr. Henry's car garnered him the Gray Tools "Class Champi- on Award", the Castrol Canada "President's Choice Award" and the MAC Tools "Most Outstand- ing Street Stock Award", which also carried a $100 cash prize.: Mr. Henry purchased the yel- low Olds Rallye in 1991 in Carli- sle, Pennsylvania for $6,000 Ca- nadian. He had it appraised at $24,500 just prior to the car show. Although Mr. Henry has owned cars before, this is the first time he has shown one. With his recent success there are plans now to show it in more events over the summer months. Scugog Township residents may spot the vehicle making rounds on local streets this sum- mer, as Mr. Henry also plans to take part in some of the local cruise-ins. COMMUNITY _ Bob Henry, owner of Manchester Collision, cleaned up when he attended his first major car show with his 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass recently, claiming the Castrol President's Cholce Award, Class Champion honors, and first place in the Most Outstanding Street Stock class.
