A few years back, when our dollar really sucked, I saw a 66 Canso Sport Deluxe 6cyl 'glide for sale in Winnipeg. My friend from the US came up and bought it. At that time, it had an amateur restoration. He took it home, and soon tired of the 6. I sure hope he doesn't mind if I show it off a bit. Here is the result of his efforts:
He never painted it. Just took the front end off completely, and added the L79, 4 speed and air. This is one of my favorite Acadians.
