....for a rootbeer and burnt rubber.

Pulled a smokie on the way out.... :twisted:

Old friend of mine owns the black 2010 Camaro SS.
My Bird is 32 years old now. He remembers when I bought it and has been wanting one ever since.

That yellow Chevy runs 9 sec quarters.
The 442 is packing a W30 option.

Yes, Your FireBird looks great in the line-up Paul, I would kill for that Beaumont.

Bet you won't see too many 00 SSEi's with speedo's that go to 220 mph/kph either. :wink:

....and you won't see too many 2011 Camaro SS's that sell for $65K either. :sad:

Yes Bruce, the rocker panel badge says SD 396 :twisted:

How do you figure that?

Canadian Pontiac Beaumont was the sister car to the Chevelle. Contrary to what some believe they were not a Canadian Chevelle but a separate model all on their own.

True. We had Chevelles too. Another brilliant GM marketing gimmick to satisfy the Quebec republic. :roll:

Beaumont......GoodMontreal. I know there is no direct translation but that could work. :dontknow:

Cause it looks like a chevelle and has a 396 lol. I was breaking it down to laymen terms incase people were wondering.

Quote:

The Beaumont car grew out of the 1964-65 Acadian Beaumont model, which was based on the contemporary Chevrolet Chevelle. These Beaumonts featured the Chevrolet Chevelle body with minor styling revisions, including different taillights and a Pontiac-style split grille. The interior used the dash panel from the (U.S.) Pontiac Tempest/LeMans/GTO series.

We had a really good cruise night 3 weeks ago , then the rain started.....
I backed my car up beside my uncles 71 GTO (built 400) , popped the hood and walked away..
Little hile later i came back and watched people do this
Step1) glance at it
step2) start walking away
step3) do a double take
step4) start counting the cylinders.
