Hello from BC


Hello from beautiful BC,

 

I have a 65 Beaumont Custom 2dr hardtop. Originally a 230-s ago when I was 156 w\powerglide. Purchased from the second owner about 15 years ago when I was 15. (not my first car actually) A little old lady owned the car in Vernon BC, and I bought it sight unseen after I sent my uncle to look at it for me. 

I drove it around for about 2 years with the 6, then decided I wanted to put something a little larger under the hood. I pulled a 350 out of a truck we had laying around the farm, four bolt main to boot. Stripped it and re-built it with my dad. Had a TH350 built for it as well. Don't worry, I still have all the original running gear, not going to get rid of that. 

Anyways, long story short. It goes like a bat out a hell, thanks to 400hp and 4.11's in the rear. Total sleeper look that looks so good until you step on the go pedal and unleash the ponies. I'm trying to keep the original look as much as possible with the interior and exterior. i'm missing the original engine call out badges on the rear of the front quarter, I had them removed when we did some body work on it, but that was 11 years ago and for the life of me I cannot find them, so if anywone knows where to get the Beaumont badges, because the Chevelle is different, please let me know.

See ya out there!

Looks good, nice combo white with red!

I'm sure someone on this site has some of the 230 engine badges for your car.

Good job hanging on to the car over the years!

Welcome from Kelowna. I just sold a set of those badges that were NOS on here a couple months ago but will try see if I can find a couple more for you. I love your sleeper look and am partial to the color of your car and interior.
