What a funny picture. I wonder if it had a souped up engine.

Ford Pinto as a Metro Police car...
Everyone: This pic must date from the mid 70s-1973/74 perhaps because of the old Eaton's store location BEFORE the demolition to construct the Eaton Centre-could MTPD be one of the only users of Ford Pinto's as police cars?
I recall that some tourists mistook them for taxis back in the yellow car days- it was the Tijuana type perhaps(70s slang for police car
)...LI MIKE
