1970's punk act Chevy Dirt & The Perpetrators featured Emslie (as "Chevy Dirt") and Guthrie (as "Squirrelly Strange"). Their first show was Elliot Lake, Ontario in 1980 and a full schedule of club dates throughout Ontario and Quebec kept them busy throughout most of that year. They would eventually tour down east twice and west once.
Recorded for Myles Cohen's Change Records label for their self-titled debut which came complete with 3-D glasses.
Skitz (aka Fyl Bennett) went on to be a member of such bands as Stranger, The Cardinals, The Rum Runners, Dos Fabulous Swilltones, Steve Lee and the Ride, Black Cat Bone, Blue Highway, The Cheryl Lescomb Band, and Celtic Blue and currently performs as a member of The Dole Tinkers.
