New member that loves Canadian made vehicles from Acadian's, Beaumonts to Mercury trucks. I own and have been working on my 1952 Mercury truck for 46 years. Since starting that project i have sourced a few Canadian collectables. My favourite of my vehicles is a 1966 Beaumont Sports Deluxe,Original big block L34 , 4 speed with every desirable option. i purchased the car in a million pieces from a local Beaumont legend. the car was completed about 25 years ago. My daily driver is a 1963 Acadian Beaumont convertible that now sports a Mustang 2 front clip and a 350 connected to the original power glide. Still in need of further restoration and some serious cash to restore all of the original trim. I've been reading this forum long enough and figured it was time to join .i still have a couple of projects 67 Acadian Sports Deluxe and a 66 Beaumont Sports Deluxe convertible waiting in the wings. Looking forward to networking with members on some of the unique obstacles in restoring this Canadian gems!
Welcome here Rob. This is Carl Stevenson. I think I might know something about your 66 Sport Deluxe convertible!
If you would be willing to put together a story and some pictures for your 66 hardtop and send them to Todd I'm sure he would love to make it the feature car at the top of this page one of these months.

Hey Carl I figured the Morris Missile had to be you! Yes the 66 convertible is still waiting it's turn for it's full restomod. My 66 hardtop is ready for a little refresh as it was done over 20 years ago. Trying to figure out who is the beaumontguru? Working on boats? I guess i'll have to figure out how to get some pictures onto this site.

He's the guy with the blue 65 L79 clone Beaumont wagon and the brown 64 Chevelle wagon. I'm sure you know Dave.
