The grill looks a little different. Maybe a Canadian thing.???It's a "bumpside" Ford which 1972 was the last year of that body style before they went to the "dentside" in '73. I'm thinking it's a '71 or '72.
Nice truck!

Very possible, Bill!The grill looks a little different. Maybe a Canadian thing.???
I say that because I remember some Pontiac's and some other manufacturers of the 60's changed grills from the US / Canada models.Very possible, Bill!

Were the Beaumont and Acadia from Chevy or Pontiac dealerships, Bill? Nice looking cars in that form too!
And the GMC trucks from that era ('55-'59) used Pontiac V-8s.Some of the mid 50"s Pontiac's had a 6 Cy. GMC truck engine in them. Friend and I drove one home from the service on leave. My uncle who was a GM mechanic at the time id'd it for us.
And Noel I feel kinda bad about derailing your original post.You sir, are a wealth of knowledge on these older vehicles. I thought I knew a bit. But I sure have a lot to learn.
Thanks Doug.

That was an interesting read, Bill! Government involvement strikes again. Cool that they were considered their own motor company!Very interesting Doug, didn't know that.
Below is a couple things I found about them.
