Re: here's a Canadian Supercar ... in Florida
Perhaps not a supercar as defined by this web site but the SD396 came with either the L34 or L35 engines. A friend and I took my '66 SD396 to Florida in February '68. Spent an evening touring around with a bunch of the local guys that we met just north of Daytona. One had a '68 SS396 Chevelle that we had a ride in. Never did see the race track but did get into a back street diner/bar. Outside was a big sign stating that only Florida residents were welcome. We let the other guys do the ordering. Had a good time and the guys really liked our Beaumont. They even gave us free use of their dad's beach house somewhere north of Daytona. We just left the keys on the counter and locked up when we left in the morning. I can't imagine that happening today.
