Meant to mention w/ above ‘67 Super Sports’ ad, note the Nova SS headlite bezels appear to be black?
Is it just being opposite side of sun like back of mirror heads appear on the other cars, goofy for a factory photo?

Canadian B-Body Pontiacs which were basically Chevys in Pontiac clothes are a completely different topic but here’s a few A+X Body Acadian/Beaumont ads which were NOT Pontiacs but sold at Canadian Pontiac/Buick/GMC Dealers.
