    Welcome. Nice rides! I love the B5 blue. I'm not sure what the classic is. It looks like a cross between a 67 Chevelle and a 64 LeMans. Is it Canadian, perhaps? I just enlarged your picture and see that it is indeed a Canadian Pontiac Beaumont. Would it be a '67?

    So, how did you enjoy the 2.65 hours of driving?

    It is a 1968 Beaumont SD396. One of 702 built. Estimates are that 70 to 100 still exist.

    that Beaumont looks like a toy between the other two machines.

    I was surprised at how much smaller the Beaumont is compared to the other two cars.

    As a new Mopar owner, you must know the HEMI payer.
