My brother is mulling over the idea of selling off some of the projects he has finally come to realize that he will never get to.
He has a 53 Canadian Pontiac hardtop that he used to drive regularly about 20 years ago but has been sitting in a shed since then. He had converted to 12 volt, open drive and had stuck a warmed over 261 in it with a 4 speed. i think it has a three speed stick right now though.
Is there a market for one of these out there? I'll snap some pictures and post them as soon as I can get to it so you can see what i'm talking about.
No decison at this point. He's just thinking.....

Pictures. I believe he has a complete grille and trim for it although its not on the car now.
Location makes a big difference for price, but there is a market for any old car out there.

That 53 would be so sweet restored. So rare that in all my years i have never seen a Canadian 1953 Pontiac two door hardtop. Seen some Chevys of that year but never a Canadian Pontiac. I detect some exhaust headers on that 261. I hope someone buys it and properly restores it. Good luck to you folks in selling it to the right person. Cheers. George.

I wish i could get an airfreshner like the one below. My Dad always bought those and put them in all his cars. After the lavender would go stale my Mom would refill them. My brothers and I always played around with them, making a real mess in the car. Brings back great memories!

anyone who restored that car or even hotrodded it would be the right guy.Car is way cooler than a chev.Car looks pretty good love that green color!Plus a hardtop to boot!Airfreshner is a piece of nostalgia also.How many cars you guys are hiding under alll that snow?They must stay relatively dry up there!

Tell ya what. I'll go steal it out of there and send it to ya. He's kind of obsessive but he may not even miss it.
