Our feature car for September is this beautiful Butternut Yellow 1970 Pontiac 2+2 convertible. Bruce McIntyre is the lucky owner of this Poncho which has been in the family since 1973. Being one of only 274 2+2 convertibles made in 1970 means the chances of seeing another one running wild in the world...

August 2020 Feature Car
(Preview)
It's always nice to find an early (Pre 1960) Pontiac to feature as there are so few of them out there. Our August 2020 Feature car belongs to Dale Petrie. When Dale found this 1950 Pontiac Silver Streak it was in pretty sad shape. Dale spent 3 years restoring the Pontiac and the results are stunning! Dale...

Our July feature car is one that could be filed to the "What if?" department. What if Pontiac Canada had a Super Duty program like it's American counterpart did in the 1960's and early 1970's? Peter Cole decided to build his 1964 Pontiac Parisienne as a tribute to what might have been available if Ponti...

Rick Buwalda is the owner of our June Feature Car. Rick originally wanted a '67 Chevelle but stumbled onto this '67 Beaumont. He decided on it instead and I'm sure we all can agree it was a wise decision! Rick tells us more: "My Beaumont story begins in 1999, after searching for a 67 Chevelle for a while. I...

I found this months feature car on our Facebook page. Jon Kauffman is the proud owner of this great looking 1959 Pontiac Strato Chief. With the help of his brother in law, Jon took the tired wagon to a whole new level. When disaster struck he seized the opportunity to improve the performance even furthe...

So few early Canadian Pontiac's survive today and it's a real treat to put this one at the top of the page. Doug Keith owns this beautiful and extremely rare 1938 Pontiac Silver Streak Deluxe Touring Sedan. I...

Now I'm sure some of you guys are getting a little tired of seeing so many 1966 Pontiac's as our feature car. So to all two of you I apologize . For the rest of you we have a '66 Grande Parisienne that I think is safe to say was brought back from the dead. Ken Yackimec was the savoir of this car. What I really adm...

We've got another rare Poncho as our feature for March and what a cool car it is! Eddy Dixon is the proud owner of this 1955 Pontiac Sedan Delivery. Eddy hails from the Yukon and judging by the condition of this '55 the climate there is very friendly to old cars! Eddy tells us more:"Here is the story on this...

I always envy the guys who still have their first car. For most of us our first car was usually destroyed (by rust or worse) or sold off never to be seen again. This is not the case for Kevin Brakefield. Kevin purchased this 1967 Pontiac Parisienne when he was 16. Needless to say thanks to Kevin and his fami...

Happy New Year! Our January Feature Car belongs to Kim Connors. Thanks to fond memories of a relative owning a 65 Acadian Beaumont SD Convertible back in the day Kim decided he had to have the exact same car. Not an easy feat as so few of these cars were made. As luck would have it Kim found this Acadian Beau...

December 2019 Feature Car

Sometimes we tend to forget that most of the Poncho's we covet today were daily driven in all weather conditions. They were exposed to salt, snow, rain, mud and because of this few good examples remain. However if one took proper steps (undercoating, regular cleaning etc) a car can survive these extr...

Thankfully Pete was well insured and was able to rebound fairly quickly. The garage has been rebuilt and two new collector cars take up residence inside. One of these car...

September 2019 Feature Car

Usually when I'm preparing a feature car I'm too busy downloading, editing, and resizing photos to really take notice of the car itself. It's not until the feature is posted when I can really take the time to admire the vehicle. Well this time it was different. I found myself pausing at many of the photo...

We have a great feature car for July! Great for many reasons including the fact it's a rare Beaumont SD396 four speed car. Great because this Beaumont's original engine may not have been what it was supposed to be, and also great because thanks to Canadian Poncho, the original owner of this car was fou...

It's been over 37 years since that purchase and in that time Ryan has put a lot of blood, sweat, and tears into the Beaumont to transform it into the beauty that we are proud to feature for May. Ryan gives us the details: "In the fall of 1982 I was 1...

It never ceases to amaze me the quality (and rare) vehicles some of our members have. Take Murray Metcalf's 1968 Beaumont SD 396. Not only is it one of 680 SD396 cars built in '68, one can only imagine how many were made with the 4 speed and in this colour combo. One perhaps? I know I'm "green with envy"! Mur...
