Thunderbird in Finland

Are you sure that its in Finland?

Back in the day, Finland had black plates with white numbers/letters. Later they got white plates with letters/numbers mostly with a - between the letters/numbers. I can not remember any letters/numbers on the left side on the plate. May be some type of custom or embassy plate!

FL SAAC, thanks for posting the T-Bird !

I think that's in Finland ? the car on the left is a '67 Ford Taunus, and has a Finnish flag decal on the right side. Looks like a port,

with the cranes,  those trucks look new.

You are right! Missed that one. Still an odd looking plate on the T-bird.

From Finland today.

Thunderbird has finnish temporarily company plates (koe K-188)
That koe-type plates has been used between 1972-1986.
I think that picture has been shot in Helsinki at Oy Ford Ab import harbour. Ford had their own cape land and harbour in Helsinki from 1930 till -90'ties
Behind T-bird are british Ford D-series trucks, very common at those days
