I just picked up a 1968. Am looking for a 66 and 67 myself.

Do you have a 1968 CDN dealer album or the 1968 CDN sales handbook??

The 1967 CDN dealer album is the same as the US one for the most part, the interior and top fabrics section is different as well as the paint chip section.

Apparently the 67 CDN dealer albums may have come with a disclaimer sheet saying what RPO's were and were not available in Canada as the albums were really the US ones with the US RPO info.

Also the 67 CDN finger tip facts book was the US one with disclaimer sheets in it saying what RPO's were not available in Canada. If you wanted some specific RPO's in Canada in 67 you would have to have the car imported from the US with that particular RPO.

I have photo copies of the CDN specific pages from the 67 CDN dealer album and 67 CDN finger tip facts book.

The dealer albums I have are 1965 (USA) and 1968 (Canadian). In the 68 the lead-in page for "Colors & Fabrics Section" says "General Motors Products of Canada Limited, Oshawa, Ontario". That is the only reference to Canada I see and suspect it otherwise is identical to the contents of a USA album (binder might be different, don't know, this one is white with the "Chevrolet" bowtie in red.

I only have one of the pocket-size sales handbooks, 1969, for Canada.
