Last night I was hunting for a cheap used car on a budget with Dan and we came across two amazing oddities at the Hyundai dealership at Parkdale and Barton st E. in Hamilton.( http://www.hyundaiinhamilton.com/ )
They had on display a 1996 Ford Lynx styled by Ghia and a 1986 Ford Via style by Ghia.
Simply amazing to see these old classic concept cars still around and being loved and cared for and out in the open for the general public to see. I have to hand it to the owner of the Hyundai dealership for being both a Ghia fan and keeping them out there for all to enjoy, good job man!
Though I'm an idiot for completely forgetting to take some pictures of them, it was dark and they were inside the building so they probably wouldn't have turned out very good anyway.
Maybe on a nice day I can grab some personal pictures of them if they let me in to check them out.
If I'm in the right place at the right time maybe I could snag a quick sit down in them for a photo op. I can dream right?
If anyone knows the owner of the dealership I definitely won't turn down an opportunity to get inside those cars!
So with all that I'll post some images of what they do look like.
This is the 1996 Ford Lynx Ghia.

Go there for more pictures of what it looks like.
And this is the 1986 Ford Via Ghia

Go there for more pictures of what it looks like.
Shopping for cars on a tight budget is definitely not my favourite task but seeing these fantastic cars really made the night out looking for a cheap car worth it.
That's it for now.
