Felix spots his first Poncho, something very special.

where was that? Around your place in St.Thomas? Ive never seen that one before, i wonder if he goes to the cruise-ins? I will have to hunt him down for sure, nice find!! I really want fender skirts but cant find them, but i inagine his are originals.

What model is that?

59poncho · Poncho Master!

it looks american, the wheels are pretty far out like a widetrack, or there a little bigger than 15x8s, cause mine dont look like they stick out that far. Also, there are back up lights in the fins instead of delete plates, and i think only american models had lights. ???

I put a nice Bonneville on the right. I agree it's a US car but not a Bonneville.

I would have to agree that its an American car... But I think the back up lights were an option on both the Canadian and American cars... But, I was wrong once before....LOL

You better leave him your name. That would be more fun than a minivan!

i wonder if he took either the 4 squares off, or 3 stars (or needs them) ?

59poncho · Poncho Master!

i think its a catalina. Ive searched some other pics and it looks like alot of the catalina wagons had no stars or squares. heres a nice wagon though.

OK guys-we lost track of Felix here-thats one sweet little boy-enjoy the moments

cars will always be there

gparis7 · Canadian Poncho Superstar!

Good idea to get Felix started early; that wagon would be a great first car. Looks very cool.

maybe you could customize that stroller and put a hood scoop on it or at least some trans am bird decals on there.

I was thinking of getting a Pontiac emblem on the buggy at the very least!
Ken, thanks, we're enjoying every moment with our little man!
Trevor, it was just around the block from us. I've never seen it there before so it's either just newly purchased, been hiding in the garage, or just visiting. I've never seen it at any local events ever.

i think i have a couple trans am emblems left, if i do i will drop them off at your place next time im in town for work. Felix Xavier White is a great name, really rolls well as you say it. good luck to you both.

Saturday afternoon was a nice day so we took our little guy out for his first ride is his buggy. It was a special event on it's own, but look what we found while we were out!! No looking ahead now!

Ever alert to Ponchos wherever they may be as you can see.

The beautiful and proud mama.

Proud papa giving a push.
And here's what we found...it even had fender skirts!

So you can see an excellent day all around!

Yeah buddy it doesn't get much better! No snow on the ground yet, mom and dad and Felix out enjoying the world, stumble on the better-than-a-minivan next family transport (let's face it, a transam has little room for all the baby stuff you have to take with you). Next thing to do is be bold and knock on their door and say "Excuse me, I live just around the corner, and the other day I was taking my new baby for a walk and I saw a great 1959 Pontiac s/w ..."

Hey, maybe the proud owner is about ready to pass along his old gem to someone who will cherish it like he did ...

Good to see Felix has that finger under control better than on his first day!!!

Trevor thanks, that would be cool if you did have one and brought it out. If you see my beige car in the driveway and got a few minutes ring the bell and stop on in.
