Jaw Dropping Survivor


I am somewhat limited as to what info I can reveal, but stay tuned. I will say it's a full size, and while it's not a high performance model, it's just amazing.

A member here has purchased what I would say (from looking at the pictures and hearing some of the details) is likely the most incredible survivor Canadian Pontiac any of us has ever seen.

No, it's not me but I wish it was, because it's a B body !!!

I'm not sure how soon he will unwrap it for us but you will be speechless if you have any interest in Canadian Pontiacs.

Only way to describe it is WOW, UNBELIEVABLE

Given some of the beautiful survivor cars here (I would include both yours and this month's feature car as two such examples), it must be something truly special for you to express such enthusiasm.

Looking forward to the details!

Mark, this thing makes my car look like a project car...

I just spent considerable time on the phone with the new owner. There should be some updates hopefully in the next week or so. I assure you it will be worth the wait!

 x2    Maybe we should guess on year and see who's closest? Maybe start a poll Carl? By your description sounds like the dream car of dream cars!

Well, my dream car would be a 1,000 mile original L72 1966 Grande Parisienne and it ain't that!

I'm not trying to be a tease here (well, maybe a tiny bit) but this deal is still in the infant stages so there's a ways to go. The car is bought but now even gone to it's new home yet.

 Carl, do we know if any were built? If so how many and is there any out there still alive?

Perhaps we should build up the anticipation and make this a new year's feature car?

Because it's in storage still, it may be a bit of time before good pictures of it will be available. He has promised to keep me updated.

The owner will likely fess up here in the not too distant future! He has given me permission to do a bit of an intro in the meantime, which I hope to do.

Pretty limited resources at the moment. The buyer has purchased the car but it's not even home yet.

I'll try get some pics up here tonight.

Hopefully it will be a feature car in the future. I'd say the chances of that are pretty good.

I doubt that they ever built such a car. Sure would be fun though.

Carl-

Yes he is.

No, I am quite sure this car is virtually unknown.
