Possibly a real dealer delivered 427 A-Body and nobody cares?.
Is it because it's wearing Beaumont clothes?.

Hey Pete I saw a real one at Classic Bowtie in Langley a while back. It was green I think. The owner said he was bring it to an auction, Barrett-Jackson I think. Car was really nice and very low milage. Until I saw that car in person I had never heard of it. I never thought of taking a picture of it. They are out there. I hope we get more info on the Mander soon,

Nice looking car. My first two cars were '66 SD Beaumonts so I've always had a love for them. Any idea what the guy is asking?

[PeteLeathersac]

Cool info fellas!.

Hi Keith, hope you're well!.
Were both your SD Beaumonts Mk1V cars?.
If yes, L34 or L35?.
Coupes?.

The green car you saw freak would probably be the restored car we've looked at in a few threads here including this one...

Beaumont SD's are cool on their own but a real Cheetah 427 car could be the coolest A-Body ever so I'm excited when any appear, hoping/looking for true provenance of being Conroy delivered w/ L36, L72 or maybe even L88 power!?

Looked a long time for this emblem:

I've just bought a Deepwater Blue 1967 138 code SS396 Chevelle sold new by Mander Chevrolet. It is a 25,000 mile car that had been stored in a carport since 1980! It has its original 350HP engine and M20 4 speed trans with a 3.55 posi 12 bolt diff. I had been chasing the car for a little over a year and the owner called me the day of my 40th birthday to make a deal and my wife and I went and picked it up in Fanny Bay on Vancouver Island the day she phoned. Her husband bought it used 6 months into 67. The car has manual drum brakes, manual steering, rear defroster, simulated wood wheel, and D96 stripes. The engine has a solid lifter cam in it with M/T valve covers and a bigger Holley carb. After sitting for 32 years I changed all the oils primed the oil pump and fired it up the next day and drove it around that afternoon. The car has DC code 15x6 ralley wheels that I'm not sure are original or not I guess I will find out when the GM Canada Docs come. The car is in amazing condition and appears to have had one repaint in its life. I know Laurie Craig he lived on Salt Spring and had a towing Co here he used to always talk about his Z and wished he knew were was seeing these pictures of the car he talked about is very cool. I have no idea of the Mander history when I bought the car but I'm glad I researched the dealership.

How do I post pictures?

[StriperSS]

You need to host them on a site like Photobucket first, and then you can add them to your posts.
