A friend of mine has a rare car. It's a 65 Acadian wagon. He decided to modify it a bit, and make it a 2 door. You have likely heard of lots of guys who do this using a 2 door sedan door, and moving the pillar back. He used a different approach. He used a hardtop door, which is not as tall. To do this, he had to chop t...

So! When I was about 19-20 or so years old a bunch of us from S.E BC use to come into Alberta and drink/party- cheaper back then. Anyhow, I have always remembered an Orange '69 Acadian SS that I use to see at the local bar and over the years I lost track of said car. About 25 years ago I saw it sitting beside the r...

I'm not sure if I ever posted this. I've blanked out the owner info and last part of the VIN for obvious reasons. What a rare car, a 2 door post 327 4 speed. It was for sale as a shell, no engine or trans, about 8 or so years ago. Weird thing about it was, the body number on it was something like 0083, and yet the ca...

I have 2 Canso SDs. Both are 1965. The only difference I can (could) see is one has a 6 and one a 8 (283) However, I noticed today that the antenna on one was in the front fender and the other was same general location and in the cowl. Which one is correct? I'm thinking pone was added later?
