A red hardtop outside a timber workshop

The Vintage Gears offers an original dealer-album color sheet captioned “ACADIAN CANSO SPORT-DELUXE COUPE.” The front plate reads “5-1965.” This Canadian-market two-door hardtop is shown in a staged working-yard scene. Original dealer-album status is supplied by the seller; the printer, exact album and actual printing date are undocumented.

Factory color attribution: Regal Red is provisionally attributed to the red/orange finish depicted. The Canadian Industries Limited G-17 1965 General Motors passenger-color chart names Regal Red, paint job R, formula 2333-1402; 1965 Chevy II references also list Regal Red, R / GM WA3309. The name is documented for the model year and Canadian GM palette, but this particular car has no visible paint tag. Exact Acadian model-specific availability has not been independently established from an Acadian order sheet. Attribution confidence is moderate-low: lighting, period printing, aging and camera color can shift red toward orange. This is not a decoded factory paint identification.

Scene & viewpoint: A rustic timber building with a raised wooden gallery, stairs and stacked boards fills the background. Three men gather beside woodworking equipment: a suited man and a casually dressed man review papers while a worker in coveralls stands at a table saw. Another person sits inside the car. The gravel yard and heavy wooden structure create a practical lumber-yard or sawmill atmosphere rather than a polished showroom setting; the actual location is unknown. A slightly elevated front three-quarter view puts the nose at the right and shows the long side, pillarless roofline, grille and wheel covers against the shaded workshop.

Inspection: Very good visible vintage appearance, with minor edge/corner wear and a plain blank reverse in photo 7. No major tear or binder holes are apparent. Fine surface marks cannot be ruled out under reflections and camera lighting; please inspect all seven actual photographs. This is a printed photographic image, not represented as a silver-gelatin darkroom print. All gallery views depict one sheet, not seven separate prints.
