By 1970, Acadians, with the exception of name and badging, were almost identical to Novas. Drivelines were the same, as were interiors and they even had the super sport name. There were no big block Acadians and the last L79 was in 1966 models built in Canada. Acadian and Nova production went to Willow Run in 1968 and the cars were exported for new sale in Canada. 1971 was the last year of Acadian production.
As mentioned, Acadians don't have a big following in the U.S., but there are some great restored examples in Canada where they generally follow the value guidelines of Novas. Even
though they were built in the U.S., GM Canada documentation is available for them through
Vintage Vehicle Services Inc.
