According to the GM Vintage Vehicle Services this car was manufactured in Oshawa, Ontario on January 27, 1966 and shipped on January 31, 1966. The manufactured number for sale in Canada was 1,596 which make this car somewhat rare. The car was sold at the Boulevard Pontiac Buick dealership in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

I have acquired this car on Sept 19, 2017 from the first and only owner. Was originally bought to be the backup of the delivery vehicle for the family owned grocery. Since the delivery vehicle seldomly broke, this wagon was rarely used and sat for many years in the heated home garage sheltered away from the element and rarely out under the rain and never used in the harsh Canadian winter months.
The wagon is all original...Paint...Interior...Engine...Trans..Diff...Preserved engine bay with factory chalk marking...it is a true time capsule...Runs like new, no rattle and all accessories in full working condition...
I just drove it a few hours ago and it will be stored in a secured heated facility until next spring.
'64 Parisienne CS "barn find" - last on the road in '86 ... Owner Protection Plan booklet, original paint, original near-mint aqua interior, original aqua GM floor mats, original 283, factory posi, and original rust.
Gorgeous car - perfect example of a 'survivor', IMHO.
Love the colour as well - makes me realize how much we have lost in interior/exterior colour combinations over the years.
Thanks for posting! Feel free to post even more photos if you wish - I'm sure a lot of the details would be of use to people restoring these cars now.
The car is now in sleep mode for the winter in a dry heated remote location with limited access...if anyone need a specific picture, i am planning on visiting the car once a month...next visit should be at the end of November beginning of December
What a absolutely priceless find. Lucky man. Is the envy coming through?
Really special to find a true survivor in this condition.
Yes, yes, yes to feature car.
LOL... you hot rod guys need to check out the "Save this Canadian Pontiac" thread and find your hot rod projects there... there are plenty of neglected cars just waiting for big blocks and 4-speeds!
Hey I'm not trying to be a jerk at all just prescribing the Red Pill on Old Cars, but just exactly who are we preserving these cars for? Anybody who wants to preserve them is a senior citizen or fast becoming one and even my own offspring couldn't care less about my old beast. The time has come and gone on old cars, I say make 'em the way you want driving the heck out of them now while we still can see and walk because they are going to be legislated out of existence in the name of climate change within the next decade.
