Beluga and the 1977 Ford Custom 500: White whales, black whales in Tadoussac, Quebec
Ever been to the North Shore (Côte Nord) of the St Lawrence?
Well you ought to go.
White whales,
Laurentian hills, salmon rivers,
and clean old Fords, like this one Aidan O'Neill found near the ferry dock at Tadoussac. Maybe the last four-door hardtop made? I don't see a B-pillar, anyway. Custom 500s were the stripper version of the Galaxie and what became the Crown Victoria. Basic big sedans were very popular in Canada.
