1969 Beaumont.  This is a very solid car.  It has all the documentation you can imagine.  Has the original protecto plate.  Has ads, historical information, spanish print ads, repair bills etc. 
 
This 69 was exported to Costa Rico in 1969 and brought back into Canada in 2011.  The car is a survivor.  It has factory A/C which does not currently work.  It is a two speed powerglide car.  Has a 307 engine.  The car, as stated, is a solid car.  It has been painted in places, and there is a minor amount of attention needed in the body.  All the chrome is present, all the hard to find parts.  The frame is entirely rust free, still have original black paint in most places.  This is one of the most solid examples of a Beaumont or any classic project you could hope to find. 
 
I purchased the car with intents to restore.  Other Custom projects have come up so reluctantly I am deciding to part with this Beaumont.  I just don't have the nerve to modify it.  It is a great car to get in and drive and can be fully restored with ease.  The car is tired for its 44 years of age but gets plenty of attention at shows and will easily pass safety to be driven as you work on it.  I am open to offers, but based on my asking price please be reasonable.
 
Thanks for taking the time...  Email with your questions

 no offense Carl- but thats not a fair comment- its capitalism-its fair to attempt to turn a profit - hell you gotta ask 13,500 to get 10 these days so that would barely break even with your quotes after taxes

its worth what one will pay-only the market will eventually tell

 

Good luck with the sale

 

P.S. I looked at it on e-bay five years ago

I was the underbidder at $8200, I think, when it was on Ebay. The car was only 100 or so miles from me at the time.

Just letting you guys know the car was only running on 6 Cylinders when it was for sale in Chicago. It now runs on all eight. The Gas tank has been changed out as it was leaking, front end work was done to the car. A rebuild steering box and some electrical cleanup work.

It cost me enough in taxes and transport to get it back into Canada, and it has all the chrome, moldings, original and historic paperwork etc. I know it does not make it worth a tonne of coin, but it is about the best and most solid example of an original Canadian car with all the paperwork and rarity to back it up. Whether or not its kept that way is up to me or the possible next owner.
As for value... Sheet metal work to the car... Needs none, Hard to find parts... No need to look... A/C.. change a charge port, dryer and compressor and voila cold air. Attention getting yup it has that value too. Spending 10's of thousands to restore a car to road worthy drivable condition? No needed here. So before you go buy one for 5,000 think about this, you can't even put quarter panels on that $5,000 one and have it painted with even half the great parts for what I am asking for this one.

It seems that no matter what it is now days if you want to get rid of something you got to give it away.......
