I sure love those Acadians , this one looks really straight but the headlight bezels look a bit off? Wrong year? Or Chevy ll bezels? I like that price too for a convertible.
thanks, sent him a set last year and it still just sits there, he does not seem to be in a hurry to get it back on the road. Should try and push him a little to get it running.
he works for the gov that might be why it is takig so long..

I went to see this car about three years ago when I first started looking for a Nova or Acadian. At that time it had a 250 c.i. and powerglide. He wanted $9500.00 for it. I used an inspection camera to look at every nook and cranny for two hours. I etimated that it would cost approximately $35,000.00 to have it restored properly. LOTS of short strand fiberglass and bondo along with poor quality metal patches. I think it would have been worth about$750.00 for parts only.
Last I saw it was advertised for $4800.00 without motor and trans.

fit on the bezels was never that greay, but they look like originals to me..
looked at old pics of my 63 and the bezel looks original just sitting too low in the fender compared to the hood. should be no gap between top of bezel and fender just like lefty's.

OK, I see that they were not put on properly and they are creating a reflection off the hoods edge too to make it look even more off. Easy fix in the adjustment, Dan I see yours fitting beautifully and better then from the day it rolled out of the factory.
The front ends are soooo much nicer than the Chevy versions.
