<VV> Sat Nite Cruise Report

[Shaun]

Beaumonts are Canadian Pontiacs and are all Chevy underneath. They were
built in very limited numbers from '64-'69, based on a Chevelle. They were
available in several trim levels and I've even seen a '67 with a COPO 427
(CSL in Canada)
Acadians are the same idea based on a Chevy II, built from '62-'69, with the
top trim level in '62-'63 called the Acadian Beaumont and the bottom level
called the Invader, and available in the SS version, called the Sport Deluxe
through '68 with an actual SS Acadian available in '69 only.
yea, Vairily ... Shaun
