Some of you may be tired of me talking about these nice US clusters (with oil and temp gauge) that we never got in our Canadian cars. They are hard to find, expensive to buy and on top of that they use a unique oil pressure sending unit that was never used in any other GM vehicle. Those senders are tough to fi...
Our December Feature Car is this beautiful 1966 Pontiac Grand Parisienne that belongs to Dan Wells. Dan had known the Pontiac for 13 years and finally had a chance to purchase it this year. Here's the story as told by Dan:My story begins before I recently purchased my 1966 Pontiac Grande Parisienne Sp...
Hi guys, At the end of the season, I had new tires put on my 68 2+2 and had a proper balance and alignment done. The shop said one rim was a little off and he placed on the back. The ride was much improved, but not as good as I would like. So, I'm looking for 1 rim (possibly 2) to replace the bad one I have. Anybody i...

Currently doing a V8 swap into the old girl and have a bunch of parts available - don't have room to store them and they will never to be reused by me. Hopefully they can be of use to someone. 239 L6 - 92,000 miles (original mileage as far as I could trace back at time of purchase 2008) Original 3spd transmis...
Noticed a few of us have posted about a sale items we have purchased, so I thought I would start a thread. If you find a great price on a shop/garage/car item let us know since were all upgrading/building our cars and shop/tool supply. Just went to Rona which has been bought out by Lowes and they are sellin...
I decided to work on this Pontiac instead of dreaming of other cars. The diaphragm had blown out of the fuel pump in September. This aftermarket filter needed to go as well. Lots of imposters out there. The right one was on the car and requires rubber hoses for all connections. 2nd from the right, is a "C...
I know, longshot here. I'm looking for a long Blue GM power seat drive cable. I believe ALL drive cables from the late 50's well into the 90's were coded for length by the colour. I think the correct cable in this instance could be anywhere from a 63-70 as far as I know. I'll be happy for any info steering me t...
I recently got my factory AM radio upgraded to AM/FM. I am looking to add a rear speaker wired through the factory fader switch in the dash. Since 68 no longer had the speaker in the rear seat does anyone have a picture of the rear speaker mounting? Also how many ohm speaker is the rear. I believe the front i...
So this is clearly a scammer but what had he hoped to gain? I've never had one like this before. Moments after I posted a GM pickup mirror for sale on Marketplace I get this reply and follow up on it many times (even though I realize he's a scammer, I'm trying to figure out his modus operandi) What would he g...
A little more work on the B power seat I'm working on. This is turning out to be a big project, probably going overboard again, but that's just fine with me. Bead blasted a frame today (but not the underside, it needs to be smooth for the sliders). A steel wooling with some Dominion sure seal rust remover...
Brand new aftermarket manual flywheel for 93-97 LT1. This is what you need if you are doing an LT1 manual trans swap. Summit has this identical part number listed on their website for $170. $40 plus actual shipping costs anywhere in North America.
This is a set of white door panels from a 1966 Pontiac Custom Sport 2 door hardtop. Certainly not perfect but also way too nice to scrap, especially considering they aren't easy to find in any kind of shape. With some time spent cleaning and/or putting a new backing panel on them they could be very nice. I...
One of the things that has bothered me since the day I bought the yellow car from Ken is it's a "Grand Parisenne" on the driver's side. Way back just about 2 days for the postal strike I found someone selling some 66 Grande Parisienne emblems in BC. 3 emblems, 2 of them broken but 1 intact. They were togeth...
