Took in the Rockton car show and swap meet and enjoyed good folks, good cars and checked out and bought a few parts to boot. Check out the Canadian Poncho's that were there. Cheers. George. -- Edited by long stroke on Monday 26th of May 2014 09:33:42 PM

I'm not interested in selling I'm just curious what the car is worth? Where do I post on the forum to get the experts opinions? I'm not sure what the forums rules are on such a post? I love the car and the smile it puts on my 6 year old daughters face is price less when we go for a ride. Cheers

Just started the tear down on my new project, a '56 Pontiac Pathfinder 2dr coupe. Confidence is high, but I'm quickly realizing I need a bigger garage (and a bigger wallet)!

Since the bottom rear quarters on my 57 Pathfinder are in a real bad shape I want to replace them. Is there any Chevy out there that would work? I assume Pontiac wont be available.
