Default Canadian Dealer Tuners

I remember seeing an image a few years ago of a dealer-tuner from the late 60's converting Camaros to 427 power. Does anyone remember this photo or any dealers from Canada converting Camaros from that era?

FYI the cars I'm thinking of weren't the Black Panther cars out of Toronto.

You're probably thinking of Mander Chev/Olds Vancouver BC.
Note the 430 Hp in the below ad...L88's not L72?

The 3 Camaros pictured were not Mander cars. Looks like they were photographed in California. It's doubtful that any were produced with that body kit by Manders, although there was some engine swaps done.
