'65 PONTIAC ACADIAN INVADER! DRAG CAR! 565CI BBC! BRACKET WARRIOR! BYRON DRAGWAY!

I've heard of the Acadian and Beaumont line of General Motors cars manufactured in Canada for the Canadian market but never actually saw one in person let alone at the drag strip! Upon first seeing what appeared to be your typical chevy II box nova I happened upon the owner Jeff Estes who told me to take a look at the front grille. To my surprise it was a Pontiac Acadian Invader! Jeff and his son Colin made the trip to Medicine Hat, in Alberta Canada to acquire the '65. Powered by a Scott Shafiroff 565 ci bbc with the 2 speed powerglide trans and a Ford 9"/4.56 gear this Invader lives up to it's name! Watch as Jeff's son Colin skillfully takes out the competition one by one at Byron Dragway's Bracket Nationals! #acadian #invader #canadian

Looks like a Chevelle in the back but looks like Nova parts would interchange in most panels

[@richardrichard4394]

Every part but chrome was Chevy11

MAN THATS A COOL CAR

[@misterbutterfinger]

The Chevelle was called a Beaumont. Canadian cars are definitely cool and rare.

[@richardrichard4394]

Had both but the Beaumont was rare in 63 Chevy11, in 64 was a Chevelle A body, Canso was X body in 64-67 in Canada
