First off, some nice Pontiacs there, thanks for taking those and posting.

On picture size, it takes a bit of work but I try to size mine at 1600 pixels wide, seems to work out well. Those huge ones you had posted were nearly 2400 pixels wide. It all depends on the camera setting and distance and whether zoom was used or not so it is out of your control really. When you post them you can see how big they are in pixels if you have a phot program.

Nice pics, some of those cars were at the Hamilton show last weekend.  Looks like there were many events all across the country this weekend and they were all blessed with a good turn-out and great weather.smile

I'd agree with Ken, when we saw it at Hamilton it looked real solid and up to the task of traveling Ontario!

Lets compare photos:

Fort Erie:

Yup, that's the same car, check out the wheels and plates.

Yep!

My dad is retired and is out every night and every weekend at a cruise ot car show(weather permitted).

He is willing to go anywhere at anytime! A real gearhead!

Specially if the shows are free or a free hotdog and drink is involved! LOL

He kills me, he will drive to, st. thomas or oshawa (example), if they are free or some kind of free food involved. He doesn't include the fact that it might cost him 40 bucks in gas!

But if the national are here in hamilton and it's 25 bucks to enter(for the whole weekend) he will not go, and it would cost him maybe 4 bucks in gas! LOL

We live in Hamilton, so it is a fare distance to most of the western shows, but he is off every weekend around 6:30 or 7am to meet up with his other car buddies!

Then goes to a cruise sat-sunday night.

I have seen other guys on here say that there is another wagon just like his in st.thomas or niagara falls, or even port elgin!

You all are taking about the same wagon, the only other one I have seen around is Halifax NS, there is a original 409, 4speed wagon there an older gentleman(93yrs) ownes it.

I tried to buy it off him the last time there, and he said when the province takes away his god given right to drive!

That is when he will sell it, and not a day earlier!

So some day I too will own a canadian masterpiece!

My dad and I are going to the syrcuse national this year, He has a one in 8 chance to win the car they are giving away(est value $65,000 US dollars)!

This show is out on by the right coast car club. should be a good time indeed!

If you ever see his wagon at a show!

Don't be affraid to say hi to GARY, thats my dad!

He will take shop to you all day long!

The rims are vintage 200s american racing(daisy or coke bottles)!

i have a 66 buick skylark that I'm working on and just bought a set of these wheels for my car.

They are different and look killer on his wagon, just goes well with all that chrome!

Cheers

Stephen

Thanks Stephen for letting us know about your dad's antics in the Parisienne. I sure hope I have that much fun when I'm retired. He has a super nice car, no wonder he is so proud of it!
