...Cost $2690.57 in 65.

Found in my late FIL's papers. The image is of my two sister in laws, my wife (little one) and Frank behind the car, in Gaspe Quebec spring of 1965.

Poor bugger had to suffer a 62 Envoy wagon with 3 kids. The big Bel Air must have been a breath of fresh air.

Fond memories of it, he told me about the car, it was just a 6, but it stood up pretty well over the rough roads back and fourth from Gaspe, driving to work at the mine in Murdochville the car never had less than 5 guys in it during the runs. They always carpooled to cut the driving cost.

I wonder if my uncle rode with him? Worked in the mine his whole life.

Mark. It turns out it wasn't this car that he pooled in, it was some years before in a 57 chev. In 66 the family packed up and moved to Ontario.

He even saved most of his insurance slips,

Another little tidbit found in my late father in laws stuff as we work to clean it out. He traded the 64 for a 67 Laurentian V8 in 69 at Wills Motors.

What engine would the 67 have had (KO91GF)? It must be a 283 as he was pretty frugal,

 

The car is a file photo, but I could picture his looking like it,
