I saw one at a car show at Beach Bend in Bowling Green Kentucky a few years ago. It's the only one I ever saw in person. The guy had driven it all the way from Canada.

Wow!  Talk about a long haul for a car show.  I see some folks from Canada at the major Carlisle events, but they rarely bring Canadian model cars.

I understand this was theoretically a 'Canada only' car, but 'Super Duty" makes me think first of Pontiac.  Don't think I've ever seen one of these in person.

With good reason!  It was sold by Pontiac dealers in Canada.  The front license plate even calls it a '1969 Pontiac Beaumont' but that's incorrect as Beaumont was in its final year as a standalone marque that year.

I'm always thrilled to see Canadian-exclusive cars south of the border.  I was very disappointed not to see a single one when I traveled to Canada two years ago.   Oh well, I'll just have to head north for a car show sooner or later.
