Does anyone know which is the correct bumper jack base for a 1965 Acadian? I guess there are 2 shapes of holes.

Wondering if anyone out there could take a picture of the sport deluxe emblems on the quarters and trunk with a ruler beside it to get scale? My buddy can 3D print them but I need measurements. Any help is greatly appreciated

Is there anywhere or anyone that has for sale or sells the sport deluxe emblems for 1966 Acadian?

I recently bought what I was told is a 1964 Acadian Canso factory small block car. I bought it as a rolling chassis and I was wondering did they make a factory small block v8 in 1964? I don't think the guy would lie but I am not sure either. Any help would be appreciated.

Some of you will know the name Diego Rosenberg. He's an automotive writer and specifically loves all things somewhat unique in the car world. He just messaged me with these pictures of a 1969 Chevy 400 Super from Argentina. You Canso guys will recognize some stuff on the car. I love the look, wish they h...

Hi all, was going through my parts and found an ACADIAN rear panel emblem. It is brand new and in the GM box. I only have a parts book for Beaumont and hoped someone could look this up for me. Part number looks like it is #6729191. Number on the back of casting is 3399405. I am thinking possibly 1967 Canso, bu...

Have an old{broken} ACADIAN hood emblem and was thinking of making it back to 1 piece and then casting a few more. There was a guy a few years ago repoping these but seems he has disappeared. Just gauging interest.
