My last stab tonite on this.....

In looking at the portion of the back bumper it appears to be the extended style which came in effect I think 1973 5 mph deal...

So, based on that I say 1973 or 1974 model. A Ford Product.

I still go with the Merc family of cars and full size model...

Ok Dennis...I'll tell you 'cause I want you to have a good night's sleep...:biggrin:

It's a 1973 Mercury Monterey (in the US)...OR 1973 Meteor Rideau 500 (In Canada...)
Believe it or not, but the GREEN one was MY car!...

Claude. :wink:

Good night!...

Yes, Beaumont's were Chevelles sold at Pontiac dealers. The reason for this is that the Pontiac line did not offer the Tempest/LeMans in Canada until 1970. When they finally did become available in '70, the Beaumont got discontinued......Last year for the Beaumont was 1969.
There were a few differences between Chevelles and Beaumonts however...mostly grilles, taillights, chrome trim and emblems were different as well as the Beaumont's having the same dashes the Tempest/LeMans line...:wink:

Ok now, here's an easy one...

Claude. :wink:

Post #588 car.

62 Cadillac.

Might be a sixty-two coupe.

I second the caddy guess above...definately just after the huge fins of 1959 and 1960 models.

Either way 2 tons plus of automobile...

kirban

Too bad they never offer the GTO in Canada......you guys got the turbo buick though...

Dennis...we DID get the whole "Tempest/LeMans/GTO" line in Canada, but only beginning in 1970...

-->Now, let's try to find "SPOOLFOOL"s car...(post 587)...!...Could it be a 1957 Studebaker Hawk ?

Claude. :wink:

 

[SPOOLFOOL2]

Yup.

See, I said that it would be easy for an old fart to get.

Time for bed. Us Old Farts need sleep too. Over and out.

It's a Volkswagen "Rabbit", not an Omni...Also, several cars in that picture seem to be VW's...Aside from the Rabbit, there's a green Beetle and a recent Jetta in the background...The orange coupe looks like an Opel though...Maybe it's a museum in Europe??...

Claude....

P.S: Let's NOT forget the car I posted!!

I figured that out about 2 minutes after i posted so I edited it, and someone STILL got me quoted writing it. That's the price you pay to be on a decent sized BB.

 

[toofastforyou]

Here we go with a new one...Can someone identify this car, year, make and model?...

Claude. :wink:

I think you slipped in one of those canadian cars from GM chevelle/version?

1968-69?

Gotta stick with US cars unless I am wrong in my assumption....

Yep, that's it!

Claude.

P.S: Dennis...Cm'on...it's Chevelle in disguise!...

The decklid and fender were obviously 68-69 chevelle. Google did the rest.

More than the deck lid and fenders...the WHOLE CAR (minus the grille, taillights and dash) was the SAME as a Chevelle! It's unfortunate that the Beaumont was dropped after the 1969 model year because it would've been interesting to see how a Beaumont would look like using the newer, squarer '70-'72 Chevelle body!...,but it never happened...:frown:
