"From the Beginning"
“They [the Toronto Ford Dealers] wanted to honor Mr. Cruickshank's contribution to the industry. His family had been in transportation sales since before motorized cars! He was retiring and selling the dealership, it was the end of an era. I wanted to show the evolution of the vehicles, using the transition from the buggy in the unprotected outdoors to the sophistication of the latest high tech super car."- MICHAEL IRVINE
