October 2017 Feature Car
(Preview)
Our October feature car is one Poncho that got a new lease on life. What was assumed to be a minor fix turned into an extensive restoration. The results are well worth the effort! Ray Friesen is the proud owner of this four speed equipped 1970 Acadian SS 350. Ray tells us the rest of the story: I had always w...

It's interesting to see how many old Ponchos came within inches of being turned into scrap. Fred Paget's 1968 Parisienne is one such vehicle. Luckily Fred is a wise fellow who had the foresight to see what a great car it could be. It's been 31 years since Fred rescued this car from the crusher and with the...

It was a no brainer for me. As soon as I saw a photo of John Nelson's 1968 Beaumont Wagon, I knew this was going to be our April feature car. I'm sure you will all be just as impressed, not only by the finished product, but the blood sweat and tears it took to bring this wagon to it's current state. Here's the st...

We don't often get to feature those Pontiac models that were well known both in Canada and in the U.S. As most of you know those models built in Canada were often quite different from those built in the U.S. Specifically, many of these Canadian built cars had Chevrolet engines under the hood. John Berni...

It's a pleasure to have Dave Anderson's 1964 Acadian Beaumont Custom as our February feature car. Dave's not afraid to get his hands dirty and because of this he can happily say that he did all the work himself. The results are a Poncho that not only looks great, but is also extremely reliable. Dave tell...

A few weeks ago there was an ad linked on here for a 1966 Pontiac Strato Chief that appeared to be in excellent condition. I'm happy to report that it now belongs to our veteran member, Carl Stevenson. The car is indeed in excellent condition and it's reassuring to know that it continues to be in good hand...

In many parts of our great country autumn is the best season to take a drive and enjoy the spectacular colours of the changing leaves. What better way to enjoy the scenery than in a conve...

Clint Scherger is one of our veteran members having been on board since 2008. He is well known on Canadian Poncho for being the "go to guy" if you need any type of information on 1970 full size Canadian built Pontiac's. The reason for this is Clint has a fleet of these cars and two of his great 70's have alre...

This month we are featuring another great 1969 Pontiac. While March's Pontiac is one that would rarely have been seen back in the day, our April car is a model that was pretty much the bread and butter for Pontiac in 1969. Claude Monast's Laurentian is a perfect example of the car a typical family would o...
