Our new '66 Pontiac Beaumont SD convertible

[murphy98]

My wife and I just drove her home late yesterday. She's a Canadian built '66 Beaumont SD convertible with a fresh regal red paint job. Been trying to convince my wife, who's family name is Beaumont & she was born in '66 to get one of these for her. She did not start out as a "Car Girl" but after riding in my '62 GMC last fall after my 7 yr. restoration she stated to get the car bug. Went to a few shows this year, she saw a few Beaumont hard tops and thought, maybe we should look into one? Only stipulation she had was that it had to be a convertible! So a few internet searches later, I found this one a couple of hours away from our place and a deal was made. I'm waiting for the GM Canada Vintage vehicle info on this car but from the limited research I have been able to do, it is one of only 57 ever built and perhaps one of 10 with the red interior, hope to confirm that soon. Has it's original 283/powerglide & rear end drive train & original interior upholstery. Colour was originally silver/gray but with body work being done when we first saw it, we decided to change to the regal red paint to better match the interior colour & black top. Looking forward to many days of top down weather with this one!
