I can already tell that this is going to end up being the fourth winter in a row where everyone else in the US gets snow while we in Omaha merely get lots and lots of cold.

Ontario echoes your sentiments. We got maybe a light dusting yesterday, but it’s all gone now.

My daughter agrees. Cold without snow is pointless.

Our snow seems to be melting. Which is a bummer.

A bit off-topic, but... isn’t that Capri one of the Fords that got the “Ferguson Formula” four-wheel-drive conversion? (basically the same system used in the Jensen Interceptor FF)

There were a couple of “FF” Mustangs too. I remember seeing one in the same feature (10 yrs ago?) where the picture above appeared.

There seems to be evidence online, albeit only a little, to suggest that there were a few Capris converted to FF.

I knew there had been “some” FF Capris but that article clearly suggests quite a few more! Have you ever heard if the famous British rallycross Capris (which were promptly outlawed) were also FF cars?

FF Opel Senators had a distinguished Cold War intelligence role. Look up BRIXMIS - and do try to find a pdf authored by Gen (ret) Peter Williams. Worth several reads.
