Rare Acadian Canso L79

[JayR]

This is a new one to me and becomes 1 of 4 that I know of that still exist.

It's actually rarer than he indicates, as there were only 63 Acadian L79s built in 1966...all models. There is no breakdown by model, but as near as can be estimated, about 35-40 were SDs and the remainder Canso Sport Coupes and 2 Door Sedans. This one appears to have all the rare Acadian SD chrome trim and the original and unique Acadian upholstery, including the door panels. Frequently this is replaced with Nova SS trim, because the Acadian upholstery isn't repop'd. The wheels are incorrect and the carb could be, too, but overall a very rare 'early build' Canso SD with GM Canada documentation to prove 'it is what it is.'
