What are you other toys?

[DukeCanBuildit]

here's mine, 65 Beaumont Sport Delux with a Tunnel Ram 406 SBC and 5 speed trans, 79 Camaro with a Tunnel Ram 427 SBC and 5 speed trans, 83 Pontiac Pariessene with a Vortec head 350 and dual quad intake.

Some of our American friends on here are all like, What the heck is a Beaumont and why does it look just like a Chevelle?

But those who know, know. ??

I remember your Plymouths had our Dodge interiors back then.

Is that a Fargo or a Monarch parked behind you?

Beautiful! Love the lever action front suspension, and the dice valve caps are a nice touch. Graceful lines.
Mine is a 1977 Viscount Sebring I bought new. Last of the British made Viscounts, tooling went to China. Rare (and dangerous) steel steering stem with aluminum forks. I still ride it frequently- what could go wrong?

I know what you mean bud, what could go wrong? That Higgins weighs 52 pounds, and at my age hills are a no no.

I've got my '73 Chicago Schwinn 3 spd that I use when hills are involved. Here's the "Green Bean".

Car guys know, GM Canada ?

Also a ‘61 Thunderbird, sorry no picture of it right now. Engine and tranny are on stand/lift in my garage so can’t play with that toy at the time. Well unless you count working on it “play” which I do.

Many guns, fishing rods, etc. Plan to add motorcycles/dirt bikes, boats, maybe even a snowmobile to my collection of toys.

I remember the first Beaumont (I guess that's what GM Canada called them in '69) I saw (In Charlotte, NC) was a 1969. I had to stop, and see if my eyes were deceiving me. It also had the unique front end. I thought it was one of the coolest cars I'd ever seen.

I‘m sure it still is for some folks. GM Canada made some cars for the Canadian market only but I’m not sure which ones. I think @puckdodger worked at GM in Oshawa and might know.

That's basically a Type 82 known as a Kubelwagen. I like it.

There was a Pontiac Acadian on my walk to school as a teenager. It was only available in Canada in place of the Pontiac Tempest which was not available in Canada.

Thanks! Yes, the Kubelwagen was a type 82. The Type 181 was know as a Safari in Mexico, Trekker in UK and Thing in the US. Only imported 2 yrs into the US.
