I'm trying to decide how to market my chrome trim around the rear window, interior and exterior. Would I be correct in assuming it's the same for 62 Parisienne 2 door hardtop as 62 Impala 2 door hardtop? Same for front windshield, anyone know for sure? Anything I list as Parisienne on e-Bay won't sell, b...

Got my headlight bezels and tail lights installed today. Updated avatar to show new look !! Got an e-mail from someone regarding a fellow with four 62 parts cars, two rags and two hardtops. Front bumper goes on next. No back bumper until I find a set of rear brackets. Very exciting.

Found a great build thread with detailed pictures and explanation on another site. I think all should apply to 64 pontiac 2 doors with the exception of the outer rockers...... month sure. I know the custom sport rocker panels are different anyhow. Have a look . http://www.hotrodders.com/forum/...

New on the forum so I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong section. Anyways, I'm finally about to undertake a slight freshening up of my 4dr StratoChief that I've owned for the last 15 or so years into a family summer camping trip vehicle.

So I'm slowly coming along in my freshening up of my '61 (will post some before and after pictures when I'm done). Since today the weather was wet and miserable in my neck of the woods I concentrated on something fairly easy. I cleaned the chrome. I had some small rust spots on my bumpers that I was able to p...

Soooo, to my dismay I discovered a significant amount of rot in the passenger side trunk area and unfortunately the body mount that's hiding in there is also affected so a simple welded patch won't do. Since I'm not doing a concours resto, short of doing it the 'proper' way and taking the body off frame t...

I am at the point where I want to install a new wiring harness from one of the major makers {which one ??}. So, I have a couple of questions......

Hey guys, I noticed that my car was looking a little sad and leaning to the left, turns out the body side mounting locations are rotten and need replacing on the left side.

I am sending my 62' Pontiac Strato Chief in for some new paint and want to remove some of the chrome to save some bucks. The chrome on top of the front fenders and script on the sides appears to be held on with small nuts. Do these nuts unscrew or are they a speed nut thing that needs a special tool? Thanks ...
