Any 1966 Beaumont tail lights still out there?
Permalink  

Hi guys since I bought my Beaumont last year I've been getting progressively more paranoid about getting it damaged in a fender bender, but not enough not to drive it everyday in the summer.

So given that, I have been able to assemble a few of the unique Beaumont front and rear parts for spares but I have yet to find any taillight lenses (or one more tail light trim piece.) 

Is there any chance someone has driver quality spares they would be willing to sell to me.

It would give a pathetic old man a much better sleep at night....

I can check with my friend who lives close to where our farm was. He has lots of Beaumont parts cars. He may have something for you.

 You are not alone, but in my case it's '64 Parisienne spares. My wife says I can build another car with the spare parts I have.blankstare

I think a lot of us try to have a spare or two.  That way if we get a little tap or accidentally crack a lens at home by being careless we don't have to tell anyone, especially the wife.

I'm pretty sure 1966 Beaumont grilles and tail light treatments were unique.  No repros either so with a total production of about 13,000 in 66 these things are not easy to find. (except here!)

I do have a bunch of stuff but not sure if I have a lens. Im sure have a couple bezels though but they are definitely not show quality. I have been thinking of selling off all my spare parts as I sold my beaumont in the spring. Will try and get a few pics if your interested.

We have 4 sets of extra taillight corners and a few sets of bezels, not sure of condition of bezels. We grab any Beaumont parts whenever we see them to preserve and forward them onto people who need the parts in an effort to preserve the stock parts pool. We do have some 66/67 parts and know of where 2 wrecks, one 4 door coupe and one 4 door sedan, are in the prickle bushes we have been mining for parts for our SD's for a couple years. There are some parts left like a near complete dash, glass, trim, 1 6 cylinder front fender with emblem, original 283/2bbl still in car, some moldings etc., if anyone needs any off this stuff we can help hook you up with location. ( out here on the wet coast) We are still looking for some emblems, louvers for our two 66 SD projects if we can help just message me. Here to preserve and protect!

Fantastic!   I love your approach!   We have to keep this stuff as it is kinda rare. I don't remember ever running into a Beaumont parts cars in my travels although I have seen a few that are being saved by people who figure they will fix them up someday.

I parted out a 4 door hardtop like yours Ken. I picked it up in Edmonton. I should maybe have saved the doors and glass too but that went to the crusher. Im trying to save more stuff now. It provided my current engine in my 64.
