Congrats on the great find!  Small block 4-speed Beaumonts - one of my favourites!

A timely post as there was recently a thread where they were discussed:  https://canadianponcho.activeboard.com/t67714230/1968-396-4-speed-beaumont-custom/?page=1&sort=oldestFirst

Looking forward to some more details and some pics!  Welcome to the board!

So I got my package from Vintage vehicle services.+Confirmed a 13637 custom 2 door sport coupe with 350ci 4 bbl v8 astro flash 300hp. All matching numbers confirmed.
The 8 track had to been a dealer install thou as it states it came with am push button.
A question I have is if 4177 were made this model, Is there any way to find out how many were made with 350 lL48 and buckets 4 speed?

Have you checked with your local glass shop ? They might be your best bet.

Could it be ordered in from somewhere ? Those glass shops should have connections for that. Think the windshield fits every 69 A-body.

Randy, would you be willing to put a group of pictures together including the documents, a story on the car with any history you know it etc and submit that to Todd so he could feature it at the top of the page for a month?
