Well, the service manual says Beaumont. I am guessing that GM slid this one under the radar and if you wanted a factory FM in a Beaumont the slide bar said Pontiac.
I bought one years ago off a guy who removed it from a Beaumont in a Winnipeg wrecking yard and it said Pontiac on it.

I know if I ever get my hands on one, it will be in my 65 Beaumont. That is one cool upgrade. You couldn't get very many options in 65 so sharing the Lemans and GTO options was the way to go.There is a guy in the Beaumont club with a 65 SD Beau, 3 spd standard column shift that converted his to a 4spd floor shift with all of the gto chrome added. This car is really nice. It's like a deluxe model of a Beaumont. I don't blame the guy one bit for doing it. Is there any way somebody can email that printout of the radio to pbudding@telus.net. Thanks

Do you mean a copy of that page that he posted and I did later?
If so, just right click the image and save it in your computer.

I got a concusion slipping on the ice yesterday and I am little SSSlowwww. Thanks, right click, yeh that will do it. I'm under house arrest for 24Hrs, no driving by order of the doc. Thank god for Canadian Poncho!!
Anyone else check out Anthonys acadian on cardomain As far as i am concerned this is total horse poop!!!! He says that the Owners manuals make reference to the AM/FM I have a 64 and 65 that makes no mention of it. Does anyone else have an early 64 owners manual that shows AM/FM? It also talks about dash clocks, map lights, multiplexes on 64 beaumonts? Ive never seen any reference to any of this stuff on a 64/65 baumonts. Also the aircleaner thing has me stumped, as i said earlier, canadian aircleaners were totaly different unless it was a highperf engine option.
Worth checking out his webpage it has some interesting stuff. Just not sure how accurate it is?????????????

Don't mean to sound irrate or anything. Just quite interested in hearing what others think of this guys website. Maybe some of it can be documented? I've just never heard of 1/2 these "GTO" accesories offered on Beaumonts
I'd love to hear what others think
