I've owned my 1964 Chevelle Malibu SS since I was 15(now 38 and starting a frame off resto). It was my first car/love(u guys know how it is). I just found out about the Acadian Beaumont and it's near mirror image to the Chevelle. I love the way the grill looks and want to try to find one. The problem is I live in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and can't go out to the local wrecking yard and find one (even Chevelles are hard to come by now a days). Could one of you kind fellers north of the border help me out? Thanks, CruzByU
Welcome,and try posting your request in the "Canadian cars & parts wanted section" That might help get some exposure for you. The Beaumont grills are diecast, so be prepared for a hefty shipping price!
They do pop up ocasionally on ebay. Always liked the looks of the 64 Acadian Beaumont grilles. Good luck with your hunt.

all the trim that goes around the grille for a 64 is posted on Windsor kijiji ads under classic cars, its all rechromed and posted at $800 -if someone needs it that would be fair value considering its been plated-I believe it was posted significantly higher before so it may still be negotiable-these items are very hard to find when your looking but they are equally hard to sell due to limited demand-the cars are low production so less guys are looking
