The Last Hoorah and End of Sale
Well, we are rolling so close to the finish line with only days to go before our Ontario Street location closes. It is truly hard to believe that we have been here for 26 years--and soon we will lock the doors for the last time. It is a bitter sweet transition, but in order to survive, we must change. The great news is that we are not closing and ending - we are simply adjusting to the times.
This could quite possibly be the last email newsletter you get from us for a while, since we are moving into overdrive during the month of April. We vacate our current building at the end of that month, while setting up in our 2006 Main Street, Vancouver BC, V5T 1G5 location. Videos and pictures will be taken of the closing day, move, and set up - so we hope to share that with you all since we know you are curious about this whole thunderstorm of a shift. All that being said, we have some current info you might want to take note of.
Last day open for public retail business at 2531 Ontario Street
Sat March 28, 11am - 5pm
Drop by with your specialty car to celebrate! We have arranged for free special event street parking on the West side of Ontario Street in front of our shop and 4 additional parking spots have been donated by the church just South of us to accommodate this final day of operations. Look for the yellow and red balloons that indicate our special customer parking.
We will continue to process on-line orders during the month of April, however it may take a little longer to get things out since we will be working full force on setting up the new local. Please take note that
all on-line and in-person discounts will end
Sat March 28 at 5:00 so be sure to take advantage of these discounts while they last.

We are aiming to be up and running in the early part of May ~ and you will be notified of our first 'open house' to celebrate our new digs!
As this email winds down in sync with the doors shutting, I once again have many thanks to give...
Special Thanks to all those who helped Wilkinson's Automobilia churn over the years!
Ross T, Tim W, Hanson T, Adrian F, Jason H, Chris J, Peter W, Michael Z, Theo B, Jan Q, Tom W, Vadim M, Mark F, Doug W, Martin W, Tate, Calvin T, Larry D, Kevin B, Dave L, Ann B-L, Don, Doug W, Selby W, Logan W, Lorraine WW, brother Bill -who started this whole adventure with me, and even that guy who only lasted half a day! (can't even remember his name!!)
An extra special note of appreciation to all the customers who crossed our threshold over the past 26 years. Your passion and enthusiasm has helped shape the nature of Wilkinson's Automobilia and continues to energize and personalize our shop. And as we reach the end of an era, a new era unfolds. What this will look like exactly, no one knows for sure at this point. However, I look forward to our first ever open house on Main Street, and am excited to participate in the new dynamic we create together.
Hope to see you again soon...
I sincerely thank you all - it's been a great ride...
... and now a new road beckons...
