Appeared in Monday's Edmonton Journal...

Many on this site are aware of the car.  It was nice to see it appear in this past Monday's newspaper...(Personally, I think I'd go with something more old school, like TorqueThrusts.  A beautiful car!)

In case the writing is too small to read it states...

"Randy Miles says this 1965 L79 Acadian Beaumont Sports Deluxe convertible is one of only 23 produced in Canada, and as of now, the only one known to exist.  Its 327 puts out 350 horsepower."

That car's a huge piece of Canadian car history. To see it locally is great. It could be in a private collection and never be seen again. A result of it's rarity. Yes I also wouldn't have changed the color, would of put stock wheels on it, and would of bucked up for some rocker trim from DT. It's one of one and I still like it. If I found one of those I think I would have a heart attack right there on the spot.
