Re: Local cruise night
Actually, there were a slew of these Iraqi Taxis built. Saddam Hussein ordered them. I believe they were all built in Oshawa but I could be wrong. Saddam decided to not take the cars and GM was left with lots full of them. It may have been about the time he was having his war with Iran. Employees were given a special deal and the cars went like hot cakes. With air and cassette stereo, they got the job done without a lot of fanfare. We still see them around once in a while.
