Canadian cars were all still in miles untill 1977. So mine is still in miles. I am not sure what the difference is except that my VIN number is different than that of a U.S. car. It has 11 digits in the VIN number and when I tried to find out any info on the internet I couldn't get anything. I ended up writing a letter to GM in Canada and for a few bucks they sent me an information package with the option codes, production date, and production numbers etc.
There are not a lot of good classics left up here unless they have been shipped up from the southern U.S.
The salt used on the roads in the winter time causes a lot of rust.
