It's hard to believe that autumn is upon us. That's not to say there aren't any days left to cruise in our favorite ride. In many parts of our great country autumn is the best season to take a drive and enjoy the spectacular colours of the changing leaves. What better way to enjoy the scenery than in a conve...

Clint Scherger is one of our veteran members having been on board since 2008. He is well known on Canadian Poncho for being the "go to guy" if you need any type of information on 1970 full size Canadian built Pontiac's. The reason for this is Clint has a fleet of these cars and two of his great 70's have alre...

It's been a while since we've featured an Acadian. It's time to break that dry spell! What a great way to break it than with this beautiful 1966 Acadian belonging to Jim Russell. Jim's Acadian has updated the drivetrain and chassis which in turn has provided him with a car that not only looks great, it dr...

If you've been a member of Canadian Poncho for a while you'd surely know there is one member who has to be the world's largest fan of 1970 Canadian Pontiac's. This member is Clint Scherger (a.k.a "seventy2plus2"). Clint is a walking encyclopedia on these cars and is always more than happy to share his k...

Our May feature car belongs to Azi Ali. Azi hails from Arizona and did an excellent job bringing this 1960 Pontiac Parisienne back to light. He employed a few tasteful custom touches while retaining the classic looks of the 1960 Pontiac. Azi tells us more about this cool Poncho: I have fond memories o...

April 2016 Feature Car
(

(Preview)
This month we are featuring another great 1969 Pontiac. While March's Pontiac is one that would rarely have been seen back in the day, our April car is a model that was pretty much the bread and butter for Pontiac in 1969. Claude Monast's Laurentian is a perfect example of the car a typical family would o...

I think this is the first time we have featured a car that does not belong to a CP member. However, it's not everyday you come across a 1963 Parisienne factory equipped with a 409 and 4 speed transmission! The owner of the car is Yvan Roy and Yvan's friend Jean Caron tells us about the car: This 1963 Pontiac...

Spring is here and while for some of us it doesn't look that way I assure you warm, sunny days are close at hand. And, to celebrate this fact, I felt it important to feature a convertible for April. Shawn Dunnett owns this beautiful 1967 Pontiac Parisienne 2+2 convertible featured this month. I'll let...

I can't believe it's already December! Where did 2015 go? One thing I did notice about 2015 is there seemed to be a lot of 1966 Pontiac discussion on Canadian Poncho. I think it's safe to say that the 1966 Canadian Pontiac's are one of the most popular years on this forum. What better way to end our year th...

Our November feature car is the epitome of what the average Canadian drove in the 1960's. We weren't all about flash. We wanted solid, reliable, basic transportation. We might spring for the automatic transmission and maybe power steering. Radio's were often a luxury. And if there were kids in the h...

I'm very pleased to showcase Gordon Hunter's exquisite 1957 Pontiac Laurentian four door hardtop for October.

The 1965 Pontiac Parisienne Custom Sport is one of my favorite Canadian Poncho's. That's why I jumped at the opportunity to feature Ron Pawley's immaculate example. As an added bonus Ron's Custom Sport is a convertible! "Lucky Ron" gives us the details: As far back as I can remember, I've always been...

Maybe it was a good thing that we didn't get a feature car for June until the last minute. Like they say, "Good things come to those who wait" and we certainly have a "good thing" for June! Call me crazy but my favorite body style is the two door sedan. Dale and L.J Hamill own this impeccable 1963 Strato Chi...

If you were alive in the 1950's and took a walk down any busy street in Canada, there's a good chance the majority of the cars you would see would be Pontiacs. The reason for this is simple. A smart new car buyer in 1953 knew that he could walk into his Pontiac dealer and buy a Canadian built Pontiac for abou...
