Thanks guys and Strato’s right about back-tracking Old Ad phone #’s, I’ve used the Ontario Vernon’s Directory before including some available online but have no idea if anything like it ever existed in BC?
As to ‘70 Tempest Cheetah’s, the 10/70 Ad above is the only one I’ve ever heard so no idea of mods but expect any would’ve remained Pontiac powered, not w/ Chevrolet engines like the Beaumont cars had?
Here’s a 05/12 article below w/ some great Cheetah info by ‘67 owner/historian George Pappas who notes some ‘65 cars were built also 68’s including the first Cheetah he ever saw.
Also below are a few more pics including another shot of the Green ‘69 at the Dragstrip w/ Orange accents + License Plate showing also a ‘66 Cheetah w/ Talbot Side Mirrors, same style on the ‘69 Purple car above…are they still w/ it today?
Love to hear/see more anything of Conroy Cheetahs, especially any ‘65/68/70 cars!
