Hi Guys
I am ready to go prep the cars here shortly

I think the 67 will go between 12 and 1 local time here and the 68 ashamed alittle later

and yes at least the mats say Pontiac but also the shop manual says Pontiac Beaumont and Acadian and I also have Pontiac on the Title and PMD on the wheel centers so it should be clear!!!

Make up a sign with our website on it and post it somewhere with the car. Tell others that there is a following with this car. It may help with your price...

Or at least if it's on air tell the Speed guys about us. That Steve Magneto is very upbeat, he may even get a kick out of it!?

unfortunatly it will be sold before speed even sets up
434 went during a commercial and 761 hopfully will air

I tried real hard to get the 68 sd on prime but was told only Canadians would know what it was ,and then I said well its time to let the americans know,even jay Leno owns a 66,I was also told they cannot use his name either

I did try to get the respect these cars deserve but I dont think I suceeded

It's been an interesting time here the last couple days touring through the cars. I met Pauleau yesterday and talked briefly to him about has cars. It's got to be tough making that decision and never quite knowing your outcome. I've been by his cars a couple times as I've browsed around and have heard some interesting conversation but Pauleau has some pretty good info to educate them. Thought I'd just check in and see what's happening and will now head to the sale for the day.

With atitudes like that ... maybe this is the reason why so many Canadian-built car owners say that these cars should remain in Canada.

Nothing against Americans ... I'm just stating why some car people in Canada feel this way toward Canadian-built cars going to the States.

You would think that if one wanted something different they go to these auctions? What about that plane they have as well. It's truly Canadian. I bet it's on air in prime time!

Good luck today Pauleau, we are all behind wishing the best for you and your cars.

kinda disheartening, the attitude of the Barrett staff. Really close minded on there part.

Too bad BJ tends to auction the Canadian cars during ads. My wife's uncle's Buck Kinney Special 72 Chevelle Race car went the same way , during an ad, real shame !

Cool Chevelle. When did that sell?

Elroy · Poncho Master!

it sold a couple years ago, its on the Team Chevelle website for sale list. Not sure what the price is now but it sold for less than six digits at the time. It's sister car went for 400g's. There were only two built by Hoffman Machine and the other one was a 1970 I think.

The 67 Beaumont lot 638 went for $18,700 US .
