JAMES BOND RIDES again. Well, sort of. The Bond car is being prepared by the staff at North Van Undercoating
for use in a CTV production called “Thrill of a Lifetime”, where the lucky person can live out his favourite fantasy.
In this case a fellow from Toronto wants to be the world’s first black James Bond. Pictured above are Bill Haveruk,
Lou Servant, Ross Ditchburn, and Marina McLeod. Frank Baker, owner of the Bond car, says he does not want
anyone living out their fantasy in his $200,000 car, so it has to be filmed sitting on a moving flat-deck truck.

concessions aimed at helping
the ailing automaker.

Keller said next year all
three automakers may have
separate pacts.
