Srefano, this line is incorrect:
"the most famous of which was “The Collector,” a 202 Comet sedan fielded by Canada’s largest Lincoln-Mercury dealer, Barrie, Ontario’s Sandy Elliot."
Sandy Elliot's business was in Chatham, Ontario. NOT Barrie, Ontario! It's about a 4+ hour drive from Chatham to Barrie.
BUT
Barrie is Barrie Poole the driver and service guy. He's still around and still doing some work. There is an old streetracer that bought a NEW in 1973 Mustang. Barrie has done the work to it for years. It's called "The Christmas Tree". Original owner sold it to and guy by the name of Glen who still has it and takes it out once in awhile.
FYI
