July 2010 - Our Radical New 'License Plate' Signs have proved to be instant eye-catchers from the minute they were installed by Tremblay Signs.  The massive Nova Scotia plate identifies CCD as 'Canada's Other Playground', our web address, and the sticker establishes the year we opened.

At the end of the shop building, we've also installed reproductions of a Texas plate along with the iconic Maritime provinces plates, identifying the main services you'll find in our Shop.

July 12 - Gene Winfield gives Tool Truck a Facelift - After several years of demos and a car show or two, our famous yellow tool truck had a few bumps and scrapes and Curtis decided it was time for a bit of a facelift.  But the job was tricky as he wanted it done in time for a special event at CCD and the shop was even busier than usual.  What to do?  Gene Winfield to the rescue!  When Gene contacted Curtis to let him know he'd have a one day lay-over in Nova Scotia after his headlining appearance at the Moncton Nationals July 9 to 12, and that Curtis could 'put him to work', the solution was a no-brainer.  (Gene's just a real good guy and wanted to do a favour for Vernon Hensby, Curtis's favourite  paint specialist, who was invaluable to Gene's workshops here in April during our Opening Week.)  Curtis, Vern and the whole Radical crew were delighted to see Gene again and made sure he wasn't bored waiting around for his flight out!  Here are some photos of this private makeover of our iconic yellow truck.
