This car is only three hours north of me, seen it posted elsewhere as well... There are a few of these Phase 1 Vanguard's in Canada... There were quite a few of the Vanguard's sold in Canada back then, but according to one book they only sold 300 of these Phase 1 Vanguard's in the United States before stopping sales of them...

I saw one here in Calgary about eight years ago (not for sale) parked at a local Brit repair garage, with current license plates in nice condition... And a friend in Ontario owns two of them in kind of rough shape...
