Looking at the engine its a Chrysler. Looking even closer it is a big block, 383,400 or 440. Blue valve covers , location of distributor and thermoquad carb give it away

So, Rob Fast, are you thinking of a major overseas purchase? Don't forget that on top of the purchase price, shipping, taxes, broker fees, etc, you will also have to add another bay onto your hanger to house it.

Yes, they are a true symbol of Canada, especially with the one pictured on the disaster at Dieppe Beach. How can one forget these photos, and the apparent naivety (after a series of errors and last minute changes) of a daylight frontal assault against those cliffs.
Edited to add: I guess it's a Dingo...the wheel rims are wrong for a Lynx.
