Just got back from the Barrie Swapmeet where I learned about this site. I have a 1967 Acadian Invader 2 door sedan.

I've done a 350/350 swap and body and paint. I've had the car since 1995 it had 40 thousand miles and an inline 6, 3 on the tree when I found it. 3 engines and thousands of bucks later, it has 55 thousand miles.

My wife just had our first kid and I'm looking to do some more changes to the engine soon. I realized that I haven't been driving it as much as I want to (even before the kid) and need to do it so I can enjoy the car more (don't tell my wife she thinks it's about the kid).

I've included a picture taken at Autofest this year

Wow, the car does look good in those pics! Thanks for posting.
I was parked near the west gate by the left field of the base ball diamond. I was parked back a row from the road so I wasn't sure if any one was really able to see me back there.
Looking forward to checking out all of your rides.

Welcome. Love the 5 slot mags. My dad had the ET five slot mags on his car for over 30 years. I have always liked them.

norontcan - when I was standing in front of 3 acadian grills and 2 beaumont grills and purchased the 66 67 invader grill, they asked if I had one and if I was a member.I looked up the sight and liked what I saw.
