Very rare piece of paper, I sent a copy to an Aussie who collects data on Chevies, right hand drive and left hand drive, I think he has a lot of data on RHD Pontiacs too.

So it's a RHD car shipped to the US? Does this mean someone in Canada could have ordered RHD?
There was a 1967 Chevy II wagon on e-bay years ago that had been a U.S. mail deliver vehicle. Oshawa-built, RHD. The reasoning was it was a lot easier to drive from the passenger side & reach maiboxes on the side of the road.

Yes, one of the owners of that wagon was a guy by the name of Tony who lived in Illinois. He had a major passion for Acadians and Novas. I forget how I got connected with him but I recall doing a very long phone call with him one evening maybe 25 years ago about all things Acadian/Nova.

I believe someone told me he had a long term illness and eventually passed away.
