I have one (Calgary)but I've also got close to $18k invested.It is for sale and I'm not hoping to get rich from the sale.I'really want to finish my '68 Acadian,or at least get started on it.The original color I think is SeaFoam Green-code H.With regret I have to let 'er go.

Got pictures? mine is for sale, but we let you sell your first, since you mentioned it first...
$5000. eh.I can bet that that one doesn't have a 468 BBC bench 4 speed,Ididit tilt,new 12 bolt w/Hotchkis suspension,disc brake conversion,and 95%new interior,new fuel & brake lines along w/new fuel tank .All mine needs is someone to take it and do the metal work.My door jams and firewall are painted SeaFoam Green and they look like original.Go figure.It is a very pretty color.
you are correct!! that car sold for 4500 as the site started up last Jan/Feb someone here saw it, and it was for sale all summer.. so with it, and mine, and 1 in scrap, and rebelrouser's we know of 6
There's also a 66 2 door post in St. John's, NL, not for sale and it might be a Laurentian. It's white on turquoise interior, originally 6 cyl auto, now 350. Looks good, but has had frame repairs and bondo in the quarters. I do remember also seeing a maroon 66 Strato Chief 2 dr post here back in the mid 80s, done the way I like it: V8, dual exhaust, factory rear sway bar were the features I could see. Only saw the car once on a mall parking lot, and I don't know what happened to it.

And I know of another just north of Cowtown in a wrecking yard complete, less 1 or 2 pieces of chrome.As I mentioned before,I have close to $18k invested and for those of you who would be really interested I'll even throw in another BBC long block(440 CI).That motor has about 2.5 hrs on it.Just needs cam/lifters, some tin and some source of induction.Anyhoo, have to liquidate.So what's that now-7 Chief's.It seems they're coming out of the woodwork.They only made 2700 or so.The strange thing is when I built this car I wanted to build something the way the General would .Little did I know that they built 2 of them. I had no idea-go figure eh!Everything under this car is about 90% new.Just the front end left.I do have an issue though-there is no end link pad on one of my lower control arms to mount the new Hotchkis sway bar.So goes the battle.Oh and my frame is in really good shape, incase you fella's were wonderin'.

If it was no hurry, I might know a guy who would be willing to trailer it west from Winnipeg for a fairly reasonable rate. It would only be in the summer though.

if you're looking for a real basket case I think there are one or two at Aldon Auto Salvage in Lamont AB. Check out the registry for linked pictures. They are for sale (everything there is) but you'd need a good parts car to put those back together.

Seven is a good number
