those are 1968 / 69 fenders... 1971 would have had the longer marker lights with engine size above them on 8 cyl. cars and that's a '69 hood emblem

very nice looking car

I just got back from Vancouver and haven't really been online.

First thing I noticed were the 68-69 front fender marker lights (clear in 68, amber in 69). The front bumper is correct though, with the larger square turn signals.

Chrome window frames were offered separately but were usually ordered together with the bodyside moldings (Decor Group).

A 307 car in 71 would not have any numerals on the front fenders, but a 1971 350 Acadian would use the same numerals as the 70-74 Nova plus 69 Camaro.

I remember seeing a fairly new 1971 Acadian coupe in Hamilton. It was root beer colour and had the standard dog-dish hub caps. The correct hubcaps would be just like the baby moon hubcaps with a red maple leaf in the center - very rare. They were only used on the 1971 Acadians, and the 71 models had a short run before being replaced with the Ventura II.

Trivia: 1968 Acadians and 1971 Acadians used the same Acadian body side and hood emblem, although the 1968 hood emblem had black lettering and 1971 had red.

I bet that is the same car from Cardomain. The fenders I suspect would have been swapped out with repros thus the side marker difference. Looks good otherwise. Very nice to see it wasn't cloned into a NOVA!
