I am back with a keeper
Permalink  

hello all. I have been away a long while.  i Ended up with way too many cars and was driving nothing. Overwhelmed, I purged everything and ended up with 2 cars. That is the number I wish to stay at. 

One is a 57 Rancheo, which I may or may not keep. 

I am in talks to get my 62 two door post back, so the Ranchero May go to make that happen  or to acquire another driver quality CDN Ponchp

 

The keeper is a 1963 Pontiac Parisienne hard top. 

Nicely optioned with power steerin, power brakes, power windows bucket seats and console.  283, with 4 barrel intake and carb. 

She is classy, tough and sounds mean, with a beautifully tuned exhaust. An absolute joy to drive. 

Pics show the interior a bit dirty, its all detailed nicely now.

I dont want to sully these pages with Ford talk, but its close to driver quality. Needs a nuetral safety switch, and interior work,  seats are good though. 

no Rust showing but has some filler in her

Just had it out in this 30 degree heat and Vancouver area traffic. Did stall once when I was too eager on the gas pedal. Was a bit strained turning over, but made it home like a champ. No overheating. Yay!

Would you consider submitting it for Todd to do a feature on?

I really like your car and I think lots of us would love to see it featured.

Sure that would be great. I do need to take a bunch of photos for the collector plates.
What do I need to do?

Submit as many pictures as you can. Write up the story including things like "why I'm interested in Canadian Pontiacs", "how I got my car", "what I've done to my car" and pretty much any and all details about the car and how you came about to own it as well as what you've done to it.
