I'm a little late to the show, but I'm here now... HELLO !!!
My name is Al Macaulay, I live in Winfield, BC, grew up in Merrittt
As some of you may know, I do not currently 'have possession' of a Pontiac, but I do own one... .http://canadianponcho.activeboard.com/t33810197/new-og-looking-for-my-58-pontiac-sedan-delivery/......... but back to that later
My first car was in 79, it was a 66 Parisienne HT, purple with a white roof, purple interior. With a bench front seat, the back seat never saw any action A lady with kids in her car tuned left in front of me... But I did take it to my grad. While at the grad party, a chick came up to me at the bonfire, and asked me if I would back up to her 66 Beaumont Custom shaggin wagon & she was going to drive it into the LAKE !!(the car had a blown tranny) I was pissed drunk(prolly 2 beers, lol), so I was onto it in a heartbeat. So, halfway to the lake she stopped... A guy jumped out of the back of the wagon(he was passed out in there), and came back to me absolutely insisting I stopped pushing her.
Well, to make a long story short, the 66 shaggin wagon turned out to be my second car ! Both of those cars ended up in the Merritt Autowrecker
I pulled my 58 Pontiac Sedan Delivery out of the Merritt Autowrecker in the late 80's, bolted it all together, actually used a 58 Chevy Delray 2 dr wagon frame as the Pontiac frame crossmembers are torched up from the original owner stuffing something non original in there. A 348 & a 3 speed/factory Chevy floor shifter & a 64 Caddy electric bench seat, same one I had in my Parisienne, lol
I briefly moved to Sicamous before I moved here. My 58 was stored at a place up there that I thought was safe, but... The cop said the guy who was charged with taking it supposedly said he "gave" it to some guy from either Williams Lake or Grand Forks area
I REALLY hope to get that car back....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
