Hello to everyone out there...My name's Jeff and I would like to be part of the Canadian Poncho Family. I am the proud owner of a very cherry 1952 Pontiac Fleetleader Deluxe 2 door sedan. I've owned this particular car for the last couple years and LOVE it...I am running the original drive train for now, with plans on updating the engine to a newer 235 or so Chevy. I get so many compliments on the 239 Flat Head, but with the amount of driving that I plan on doing with it, the flattie needs a break. I'll always keep it so that I still can change her back if I like. Here's a couple pics of her...Planning on a color change in the near future...The second pic is at a car show with some of my fellow Riff Raff members rides. Anyway, I'm glad that I've found this site and am looking forward to sharing my 52 and learning about your rides....Take care and stay warm.....I'm sending this after we had about 8 inches of snow and will be having -40 or so wind chills tonight. Cheers
thats a cool car, you will find lots of info and lots of great people hear. stay warm

Welcome to the family! love the car brings back memories of 1959
Chritsmas day 1959 My father and I in our maroon 1952 4 door with skirts and sunvisor, entered a bridge out side Sackville N.B. The bridge was two lane built of at least 18 inch beams and had a centre divider My Dad was drunk and entered the bridge at 60mph We did not come out the other end
