The 55th Anniversary Coasters Tour has started in St. John’s. Classic vehicles of all makes and models lined up in front of the Confederation Building for the event. The government marked the occasion by signing a proclamation declaring July as the car industry’s legacy month. The range of cars included classic Ford, Chevy, Oldsmobiles, Plymouth, and even a vintage fire truck with the “Old Yeller” at the front and the “Old Goat” at the side. The tour of the owners / fans of classic vehicles1 will travel from coast to coast, from St. John’s in Duncan BC. @VOCMNEWS pic.twitter.com/yvCNfwEGvu – Richard Duggan (@RDugganVOCM) June 28, 2022 Coordinator Fraser Field says the event takes about four years to gather, noting that this is their smallest group ever — about 100 people in 56 vehicles.
