Either a 1968 or 1969...I don't think it's possible to tell without seeing the grille or taillights.

Turning signal/parking lamp position at the bumper and smaller federally mandated side marker do indicates 1969 model year.

Really? Below is a 1968, and it has turn signals/parking lights in the bumper, and side markers.

EDIT: Eh, sorry, just saw the "smaller" part before "side marker." It does indeed appear to be a 1969 model Chevelle.

It has a split grille. No Chevelle had one. I think it's a Canadian model. Sold by Pontiac in 1968/69. Don't recall the model name . I think this is the same car from the rear. /vehicle_158941-Chevrolet-Chevelle-1967.html

Filming locations: Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, so it is likely to be one.
But what is the true name of the car, somewhere it is Pontiac Beaumont, somewhere it is just Beaumont, as brand?

Just as Beaumont it seems (cf comments on the other Beaumont page and on Wikipedia)

Antp and car_nerd, you are right it is Canadian made Pontiac Beaumont. The grille design is different from 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle series.

I think it the same vehicle as /vehicle_158941-Chevrolet-Chevelle-1967.html . That taillight design threw me off. Opinions?

The Beaumont was sold by the Pontiac/Buick dealers, it had emblems very similar to those on Pontiacs as well as some Pontiac trim but it wasn't officially a Pontiac.

However, most people here refer to these as Pontiac Beaumonts.

While the full size canadian Pontiacs were Chevrolets with Pontiac body panels and interiors, the Beaumonts shared more exterior parts with the Chevelle than they did with the american Pontiac LeMans. The Beaumont and the LeMans had the same dashboard, it looked like a Pontiac inside.

plymubishi wrote 1968 or 1969, if i remember correctly the 1967 chevelle was a bit longer

Skid wrote Taillight visible looks like a 1967 taillight, though.

car nerd wrote I'm farily sure it's the Canadian variant of the 1968/69 Chevelle. I have no idea what they were called :think:

Skid wrote 1967 Chevelle from a similar angle...notice the taillights.
http://www.up22.com/ChevelleImages/1967ChevelleWhiteRear.jpg
Beaumonts had different taillights in 1967...and WAY different taillights in 1968 and 1969.

plymubishi wrote
using that photo verifies that it is NOT a 1967, just as he said ...notice the taillights

car nerd wrote 1966/67 Chevelle Malibu's had a "Flying Buttress" rear roof treatment. The car in the main pic has a flush-fitting rear window. Check out the link below. It's a 69 Beaumont and it seems to have identical taillight design.

Also, I am fairly sure this is the rear of the car in this pic: /vehicle.php?id=158955

plymubishi wrote i agree with car nerd after seeing his links, but it is still not a 1967
