Never seen that nameplate on any before but that doesn't mean they're not original.

Here's a pic of a '63 Beaumont panel (black) and a '62 Beaumont panel (gold).
Both are all vinyl no polyester but again not sure about Invader or Canso.

I found this very interesting.  When I first saw these panels, I thought they must be some kind of custom panels with the Invader name pressed on them.
I knew my 62 Acadian beaumont and all the others I had seen were not this two tone pattern. 
While browsing through eBay today, I came across a 62 Chevy II for sale and decided to take a closer look because it was void of any exterior trim so I wondered if someone had removed it as so many times happens with the early Chevy II's.
Well this car was plain jane because it was a Chevy II 100 model which was the same as the Invader model of the Acadians.
Here is a picture of the door panels in that car:
Too bad the file is so small, I can't resize it but the panel is identical to the red and white one.  This tells me the red and white panels are original Invader from 1962.
