Hello All...


Hi, 

I've been following CDN poncho site for quite a while.  I'm up in Northern Manitoba working, but my parents are keeping the tires warm on my Parisienne while I'm away.

It's a 64 custom sport I bought about 10 years ago from the original owner's son.  It was all original including the rusted out floors.  After a summer of fitting and welding, I then drove it for about 4 more summers (35000 miles) before we took out the 283/powerglide and put in a freshened up 305H.O. and overdrive, and then put another 20000 miles on before I moved north and couldn't bring it.

All the bodywork is pretty much as it came, it seems like it was in some fender benders with some bondo patches here or there and lots of door dings.  But it's a great driver, and has been from B.C. to Toronto with me.  The interior is all original with some nice options like factory tilt and posi.  I've put some wheels and tires on and replaced the springs, shocks, entire brake system (still 4 drums/single line), some axle seals, and weather stripping.

Future plans are for a front disk kit and maybe air ride (cause it looks cool), and a hidden amp with some speakers for the I-pod.  Oh, and 3 car seat anchors (been busy since I bought it).

I've always gotten a kick how it's never been the girls turning heads but all the older guys reliving their past as I cruise by.

Love the cars everyone has, enjoy the summer cruising for me...

T.
