'68 Beaumont Price List,Empress Motors,Victoria,B.C.


 

This price list was printed on 8 1/2 x 14" paper and my scanner only does 11" a couple of lines of snow tires off the bottom of page 2.

I seriously thought that we would buy a new one,that's why all the circles.We bought our '67 instead.

There were 3 short lines at the very top of 1st page that didn't make through the scanner.
Std.Engine 6 cyl. 140 Econoflame 230 cu.in.
8 cyl. 200 Econoflame 307 cu.in.
Sport Deluxe-325 HP Econojet 396.

You all probably knew that anyway.
I have a few more of these kicking around if anyone's interested in seeing.This '68 is the smallest,most others have 4 pages.

That is so cool.  Yea I also noticed the more expensive 327. Seems strange. You would think the 396 would be quite a bit more.

Cool    Its interesting to see the 73667 Custom Convertible @ $3595 and the 73867 Sport Deluxe  @ $3971     
I thought 736 cars were SD's at the "first of the year", and changed to 738 cars later.....
So a 73667 custom had only a 350HP396 as a option?  and a 73867 had a 396-325 standard?    How did over 400 73667 Custom convertibles become SD's???

73867 was the actual option for SD396?  only 66 ordered?    or do I have it backwards    doesnt seem to show the SD as a separate option   splain pleaseevileye



Carl, are you mixing this up with 67 by chance? This is the 68 price list.

That is because a SD came with the base 325 HP 396.  When you include the difference between the Custom and SD the L34 option works out to a total of $483 which is a lot more than the 327.  What is missing from this price list is the heavy duty suspension.  This would have been a mandatory option on the SD. I can't remember for sure if the 68 had it included in the price of the SD or not.  If it did then that would account for some of the difference between the SD and the Custom as well.

One thing I don't see on the price list is the 8 track tape player unless I overlooked it. Anyone have any idea what it cost?
