Have to agree, thats one nice car. I love that stock factory muscle look. Also like that there is no snow in those pics. Dam I hate the winter. Hurry up spring .

Thanks for all the nice comments I get them when Iam driving and at shows.. When I go to some shows her in ONTARIO I here some NEGITIVE coments( witch I address )like. nice Nova theres no such thing as a Acadian SS.They never came that colour.It seems that you meet GOOFBALLS where ever you go. I was looking for a car seriously for about 2years.This one came up and could'nt pass it up. To tell you the truth I wish I would have built it myself ! This car is extremely clean and rare.Last winter I pulled the motor out and got it rebuilt properly.Used POR-15 Chevy orange paint ,the motor is the proper colour now.The car to me is know the way it should be. I'AM very very FUSSY so I am told.

Most can't tell the difference, know little or nothing about them and definitely have no idea of the options available. Lol, doesn't really matter what kind of car you show, there is always some know it all that knows nothing.

I'm thinking of bringing my 1960 Pontiac Mustang wagon with a factory 423 Hemi and 6 speed 400 turbo to the next show. aww

You paid a million (Cdn dollars) for a "fully restored" car and removed the motor? and rebuilt it "properly" and now you are "driving" the fully restored car..

Nope.. you are not fussy disbelief

... we did see all the photos of it, before you bought it Will the previous owner question the "properly rebuilt motor thing?"

Beautiful car,i also have a 69 Acadian 2dr 307 2bbl with orig buckets & console, 52 red, black int,does the Acadian SS have painted black headlight bezels or are these 68,do they have headlight adjustment screw slots? mine has crome bezels & is orig ,have pics from orig owner when brought home feb 69. does your car have orig tac & clock, if so does clock have maple leaf? There were 17.564 nova SS built in 69 there were less than 1091 2dr V8 Acadians built. yours being a 69 Acadian SS is real rare. 311 L78 with alu heads, yours is likely less than that.

I love guys who know more about your specific car than you do. I'm still trying to find the elusive Buick Grand National that came from the factory with twin turbo!
