Jerry/Chuck/List

If you would have asked me sooner, we would have accomodated. I can help with the Claud Butler details Jerry needs.

Last year when I purchsed my Avant Coureur from a wonderful collector in Victoria British Columbia, I also had the same predicament "How to confirm the machine's identity?"

All I had to do was ask one of our local expatriots and "voila" I was handed pages of CB catalog information regarding the Avant Coureur. (And you know now that I have written the model name twice I need to check the spelling as I now remember that it was not spelled the way I had initially thought)

Jerry, no problem, my Avant Coureur is now owned by a good friend here in Toronto, he has a large collection of manuals.catalogs and CB related material.

Wayne (You should've called here first) Jolly, Toronto, Canada
