I can't seem to prove one way or the other if they are right for 65 Acadian. If I look at the brochure pics, then they are wrong. If I look in the Beaumont or Acadian parts book, it shows they should use the same cap on both cars. ?????

Geez, you are right carl, the pic in the dealer brochure shows a weird plain style cap. i dont think i have ever seen that one. As far as i know, the above cap is correct for 64/65 beaumont and 66/67 canso. As for the 1965's. if the car had 13" wheels these would be wrong. If it had 14" wheels, i think they would be correct, if not, no one would know the diffence.

MY BEAUMONT HAS 4 STUDDED TIRES AND 2 BLOCKHEATERS......AND LOTS OF OIL UNDERNEATH. The other one has a longer roof.
I have a set of those plain ones but for 13". It appears they must have made them 13" or 14" which I didn't know. However, brochures have been known to fib before. Perfect example is the GTO 8 lug wheel picture.

I can't get my PM screen to load properly. Yes, I want the caps. I will keep trying to PM you. If it still won't load, I will wait till tomorrow and try again.
Your PM came fine, and I have sent and received others tonight but now it won't work for some reason.

Thanks very much. They are cool. I do not ever remember seeing a set like that before.
They should make a great addition to my 65 should I decide to go the dog dish route. My whole family is against that look but they don't understand the bare bones COPO look!
Thanks again.
If anyone happens to have any need for feedback on 1964Canso, top notch in my books!
