Pontiac trivia


Most of you know this one but there may be some new-to-Canadian-Pontiac people who don't, so here goes---

What years did Canadian Pontiacs offer a full size two door station wagon?

I don't think there is a 57 Canadian 2 door wagon, nope.

"Edit"

I could be wrong on this, still looking for info.

I will gladly accept correction if I am wrong on my replies here.

One thing I am fairly sure on though, nobody has nailed it yet.

I think I have proven myself wrong on the 57. I have found a listing for one in the parts book. I thought all 57 2 door wagons were sedan delivery style only but I don't think so.

Anyway, the following answers are still wrong---

55-60

57-60

58-60

Nope, still not!!!

Ok, let's agree there is a 57 2 door wagon. If so, you can edit your above post to include the 57. However, it would still not be the correct answer!

Cool, yup, found it in my parts book listing too!

So, we agree there is a 57 2 door wagon.

The correct answer has still not been posted. It is a tricky one.

You guys are all over it but haven't nailed it.

Now that I've thought about it, I've seen a 58, and I've seen a 60, but never a 59.

There seems to be no 59 Pontiac 2 door wagon. It appears there was a 55-58 and a 60 but no 59. I think we discussed it here maybe 2 years ago and everyone pretty much agreed it must not exist.

Nothing at all about it in my parts book illustrations either.

Strange thing, makes you go hmmmmconfuseconfuseconfuse

Just wondering, in 55 and 56 was there a four door wagon ? Hard to see in the brochures but look like all are two door.

Yes, I believe 4 door wagons were listed but if there is disagreement to that I will check to make certain.
