have not had a working fuel gauge for the last 2 years. 1st problem was incorrect fuel sender (90 ohms instead of 30 ) this may have screwed up original gauge (would not return to empty when off) 2nd problem seemed to be bad connections on the posts on the gauge, i suggest removing the nut and clean under th...

Haven't had the chance to measure the doors but just looking at them they looked very similar. Rear doors slope off unlike the wagon but with my little eyes look like the front ones may be the same. Leaving it to you experts for an answer. Thanks.

I have seen Nova fuse boxes, etc.... for sale but have been told they won't work for my Canso as the tail lights, etc... are different. I...

Last weekend, i have seen an 1968 Acadian SS with a 427 engine at a local car show. The car was having the 427 V8 badges on the side and everything. I'm wondering if this car is the real deal or not? Did Acadian ever produce SS model with 427 in 1968? Sorry i did not take any pictures...

Ok here's my dilemma, I am getting ready to do bodywork /paint on my car. My car had a vinyl top put on at the dealership @ Jenner Motors in Edmonton in 1965. I am not going to keep the vinyl and am just going to paint it. The problem I am having is that my GM Canada documentation says the car was Tahitian turquo...

I had someone tell me that there is supposed to be black inside the chrome piece that runs across the bodyline of the 66 Acadian. I can't be for sure, but it looks like there is no black in the pictures of my car from the late 60's that I have and it doesn't look like it in the brochure. Any opinions? Thanks
