Hello guys!

Hey, I am Mike and I am from Ontario, Canada.
I love the classic cars and I can't  get enough of them!

My favourite car is the 2 door 66 pontiacs (since I can't afford the GTO's it would be the 1966 Laurentian, stratochief, parisienne, or a ventura)

I have some pics, but they're mostly of work in progress.
Actually, it's been a work in progress since about 85.
Hoping to have the 66 on the road next summer, not finished, but on the road at least.
Hmm, maybe I'll dig those pics up and post them later this week.

Oh, this pic of the Catalina is not of mine, but of what mine is supposed to look like.
Mine is sans front clip.
So, if anyone has a line on a 65 Catalina front clip in good shape, I'd be interested in hearing from you.

Scans of photos from 20 years ago......

Taken at the POCI convention in Greensboro, NC. 1986  "Most Interesting Post War Pontiac" award!





My other 427 car was an automatic with many options added. I put in power windows, seat, trunk, antenna, air, tilt, am/fm, reverb, tach and gauges.
