Okay, all you guys that said you were very interested, but it was too cold ... Here ya go!

This is a fantastic and super original project car. It is also exceptionally RARE, being 1 of only 652 ever built !!!!


A reason these cars are so difficult to come by is that they were built in, and for Canada only.
Check out the Maple Leaf insignias on the grill, steering wheel, and emblems. Unlike the American Pontiacs of it's day, the Canadian Pontiacs were built on an entirely Chevrolet drivetrain! It's not a Chevrolet Malibu, nor a Pontiac Lemans/GTO. The engine and frame are all Chevy while the car has the upscale Pontiac interior. The body styling is all it's own. Ask the most devout of American collectors and, chances are, they'll be baffled. These cars simply do not exist south of the border, in any form. Add to that, only 652 were built.
This car is a tremendously rare find. How many can possibly be remaining(???)

A bit of background ....
This car was last on the road in the early to mid '70's.
It has been kept in dry storage for 35+ years since. This is a dry, inland, BC car.

The body is quite remarkable. It'll need a wee bit of flat panel work behind the rear wheels but, not much more. It's super original, right down to the paint !!! (Although, it appears to have been touched up in a couple spots, obviously very early on). Under the hood is it's factory original, numbers matching 283 V-8 that should run with not much more than just a carb rebuild. It will need the usual interior work, etc. for a restoration.
This car is a relatively-simple resto and should be a stunning little machine when done.

To all those of you writing to clarify -- This is an Acadian Beaumont. No, that's not a typo or mistake. Back in '64, the Beaumont was a trim level package available on the Acadian. It wasn't until years later that the Beaumont became a model of it's own.

Included with purchase is some rare original advertising from 1964 that I have collected.


If you are interested, please contact me through this ad. I am asking $4000 (firm).
I may consider some interesting trades.

Best regards everyone!!!


As a sidenote... I politely ask for genuine inquiries only.

Well from the looks of this rare car , looks as though it might have being or was a bench seat car , the one picture shows a tall bucket seat . which is not proper Some interior shots would be nice to see. the wipers are gone as well as the emblems on the rear quarters too.defenatly a nice find tho.

To all those of you writing to clarify -- This IS an Acadian Beaumont.  I am not double-labeling and...  No, that's not a typo or mistake.  Back in '64, the Beaumont was an upper level trim package available on the base Acadian.  It wasn't until years later that the Beaumont became a model of it's own.

As a sidenote... With ALL RESPECT, I politely ask for genuine inquiries only. Enough is enough.  Please do not write to me if you are lonely and empty- pocketed Cdn Pontiac enthusiast wishing to share trivial facts.  I've had enough of that so far, don't need any new friends, and do not care to engage in pointless conversation.  Also, there are no other pictures -- If you find it absolutely necessary to see more pictures, feel free to arrange for a photographer.  Otherwise, bring cash and come view the car.  And, finally, I don't care how far away you live -- simply not my concern.  Quit whining and buy something closer.  Seriously guys!  Grrrr...

I see it has an emblem on the front quarters. Is that common to a v8 designation? I can assume the missing rear quarter emblems read "custom" thus giving it a split bench front seat     man that's cherry
