night cub ◊ 2012-09-15 21:46	Yes, but was the Laurentian available as a convertible in 1971? I haven't been able to confirm this.
56Chevy ◊ 2012-09-17 06:39	I did a little more digging on the web, and night_cub is right, there doesn't appear to be any mention of a convertible Laurentian in 1971. I did find something that says in 1971, the laws were starting to change here in Canada, and you could buy the US models alongside the Canadian models. http://canadianponcho.activeboard.com/t37424465/71-catalina-in-to/ So, this car could be a Catalina
