The Ontario Thread!

Hey guys,

I'm wondering if anyone here has a Lancia Stratos. I am doing a compilation video of cars with popup headlights, and the Stratos is one of less than 5 that I still need. If anyone here has one, I would love to include your car in the video!

I saw this one at the Concours d'elegance in Plymouth, Michigan a couple years ago that I believe was from Ontario.

And just an FYI: in case you're wondering, why not a Countach? Why not a Vector? A Cizeta V16t? A Ferrari 288 GTO? ect, ect, ect - I have those already.

Thank you for your time guys, I appreciate it!

Kind regards,

Chris

So this just happened. Poor Scuderia...

 

Ouchhhh any idea how it happened?

 

Apparently making a u-turn when it went all wrong.

Ferrari mangled in afternoon crash

 

I hate it when I hear or see stuff like this, but I guess s__t happens

As long as there were no injuries.

Bloody news reports, the car is not "mangled"

 

True

Below freezing temps, semi-slick tires, a lightweight powerful car, and a amateur right foot doesn't mix well.

 

Do you guys have no salt on the roads there?

I agree with above, summer tires + frigid temps = no traction.

 

Plenty of salt. Enough to cook roadside dinners all over the GTA.

Suddenly, I think mangled wasn't too far off, lol.

 

And a Scud at that... <sad>

 

Sure is...although one less Scud in North America can only help to raise the value of the remaining ones

 

Just found out - my friend posted the car running on Hoosier Tires on a -20 degree C. day.
Brave Driver , poor Scuderia

 

Very bad idea to drive these cars on salted road. I wouldn't buy one of them used if I knew.

The car look worst than it really is. The bumper and crushed fender make it look that bad. I'm sure after removing the bolted parts and cleaning up the mess it's an easy repair.

If bolts are not all corroded by salt ;-)

 

This is what's called a "crying shame"

Car was being tested by mechanics after a brake job when a tow truck driver made an illegal u turn. Sad indeed

 

Its good to know it wasn't the fault of the driver/mechanic who was just road testing the car after a brake job, but I would hate to be the owner of the car and get a call from the dealer telling him, "sir, we're sorry to report that..."
Previous reports didn't mention that it was a mechanic road testing the car, but it was assumed it was the owner taking it out at a time of year when he should have had it in storage.

 

..cept for us that don't have one "yet".

 

Well, what are you waiting for?

Your Scud looks beautiful, would love one, but just got my 575 a little over a year ago.

Thats my friends old Scud, the car is so perfect. So sad to see it go Hope it goes to a good home!

 

I kick myself often. I had an ability to buy a friend's 2009 Scud for $160K back 3 years ago but could not give up my 3 pedal Spider. "Keep Saving" while these beauties go up in value.
