That looks like it needs a good cleaning and tlc to get back on the road. Not for me but but what would the selling price be for the whole car?





Yes, the price ($1100) is in the ad but I didn't do a very good job of making the price stand out. I'll fix that.

The scary thing about this car is it's likely worth more to part it out and then haul the hulk for scrap at the current price of $205/ton.

$205 a ton. Holy crap. Here in Regina its a whopping $100/ton. Do you get commercial crushing price as I know the commercial guys get more per ton than the public.

No, that was public price this week. My friend gets commercial price, he's retired and does a lot of it but I haven't asked him what he's getting.

I'm really glad to see there is hope for this car. With some hard work it would be an exceptional example, well worth the trouble to bring it back. Even if just brought up to a roadworthy level it would be nice.

I agree, the more I look at it, the more I want to see if saved. Especially when I looked underneath and saw how good it looks under there. I was expecting it to be bad on the bottom side.

Food for thought.....what's more rare? Fifties and sixties cars are plentiful, these big ones were all crushed for their weight or used up in demo derbys.

That's a nice solid car, and a fairly unique one at that.  Hopefully it will be saved, but understandable if it ends up as parts.

The mid-seventies cars still haven't caught on that much with hobbyists even though they are the last of the really big cars, there will likely never be anything like them ever built again.  I guess it's because most of us never drooled over them as youngsters, but regardless they are big, comfortable cars with (in this case) plenty of power and creature comforts.  Probably won't find much better of a ride for long highway trips.

Meanwhile, most of the stuff from the sixties and early seventies still seems to be appreciating in value, but anything past 1972-ish has remained stagnant with a few exceptions (like F bodies).

Good on you Carl for giving the board members a chance to save it.  I hope it can remain an intact vehicle for some years to come.

 I only part out 66s, Carl knows this. Rare cars need to be saved or what do we have  left, its probably the reason I have three 409 money pits in my yard

Funny, I found one exactly the same color and combo back around 2005 in Winnipeg but rustier, the 455 went in a 79 TA. Nice Parisienne Brooo Ham !

Yes, this car is screaming for rallys. And skirts would look great on it too.

I have a verbal deal completed on this car.

We'll label it "Sold, payment pending".

The Parisienne was different in that it used a lowly Catalina grille with Grand Ville new rectangular headlights, the only 75 Pontiac to do so. Those angled power controls on the doors are so Pontiac though. The complete interior, both door panels & seats are sourced from the 74 Bonneville.

Check out the pic below. It shows automatic level control as being available only with the 455. How many were built? Not many I'd wager.

The only way it makes sense to fix this car is for the buyer to be someone who does pretty much all his own work. To pay someone to do it all would be a bad investment, it would be cheaper to buy a finished car.

The deal in progress is with exactly the type of buyer mentioned above, a buyer who does pretty much all his own work, from the hood ornament to the gas cap.
