The Social Credit premier, who didn’t like flying, was chauffeured around the province in the limousine on official business from 1968 to ‘72.
The Kelowna Museums Society is trying to find a new home for a 1968 Cadillac Fleetwood limousine that served as former B.C. premier W.A.C. Bennett’s chauffeured vehicle during his final term in office.
The limo went to the Royal B.C. Museum for a time, then was given to the Kelowna Centennial Museum in the early 1990s. “Premier W.A.C. Bennett will have a new car on the opening day of the legislature, Jan. 25, he told reporters today,” read a Vancouver Sun story in January 1968. “He said the B.C.
