The Ford Lynx was produced in Canada during World War II by the Ford Motor Company in Windsor, Ontario.

It is a Ford V-8 powered armoured scout car and is based upon the Daimler DINGO. These were replaced by the Ferret Scout Car in 1954.

If anyone has one for sale, I would like to know about it  - being a Canadian and fan of our WWII vehicles production.
