Uncork the side pipes and Vrrooom! Nice car with a nice interior & engine (even the red heater hoses look great)! Manual brakes/steering.
I think I've seen this car before. Wonder what the reserve is with a 13 thou. starting bid.

Just ask Carl427 Because the car was built in Canada it is cheap to take it home again, I think?
I usually buy American made cars in America,but I'm thinking that our TAX GREEDY government would likely still nail you for GST & PST on re-importation to Canada.

I'm not taking anything away from this beauty but for the record a floor mounted four speed was still several yeras away in a Canadian Pontiac. I believe 1962 was the first year and in '62 no big blocks were available either.

Good eye! That appears to be my friend's car. He's in Nebraska. I talked to him last week about some other stuff but he never mentioned listing this one.
I've posted pics of it in the past.
He's a great guy, if someone is interested at all in the car, call him he will tell it like it is about the car.

exactly
you would have to re-pay GST (5%) on actual sell price at the border
+$30 to get the sale notarized and $5 for a temporary plate from the notary that does it
+ transport
+ $225 RIV
+ $98 provincial inspection
+ all repairs that both inspections require to license in Canada
+ 3 days wait at the US border
+ storage fees at the US border side since that most border crossings on the US side don't want to keep the car in their storage
+ the trip back at the border to pick it up
+ $125 provincial evaluation (to get an actual value to pay your PST in Quebec) ....... you pay the PST (9.5%) on the highest of both values (evaluation or actual price paid)
+ 9.5% PST
+ inspection of the car in Nebraska if you don't inspect it yourself
makes for an expensive car to import to Quebec
might be different in other provinces but not fun for Quebec, did it before and i now find local cars
I never went through all that hassle or even one third of that money when I bought my car in Maine and brought to PEI.
Boy, you Quebecers have it hard (by the way, Montreal is my hometown).

The eBay auction is still up. I wonder what would happen if someone all of a sudden bid 30 Gs?

Ray did you notice the red heater hoses?
sure sign of engine swap
no 348's til later
won't matter at border... They do not look at car
the 348 tri-power was available in 1960 in the Parisienne
it's in the dealer brochure as the Super Astro Flame 280 HP
unknown 7637 348ci A (912 maroon ) Alberta no pic #729538 Laurentian 2dr hrdtp Tuxedo Black spot. 68 427 BS0 6A 391 Calgary Motor Products Ltd.-Calgary Alberta
I'M PRETTY SURE THE GM PAPERWORK FROM THE CAR ABOVE NOTED THE TRI-POWER OPTION AS AVALIBLE FOR 1960. THIS CAR WAS JUST A 4BBL.
