oh Carl don't do anything yet, how long could you stash it for, we need to talk, I shouldn't but, ill pm you

that would work , its a long drive, need to plan it out

I'm really glad to see there is hope for this car. With some hard work it would be an exceptional example, well worth the trouble to bring it back. Even if just brought up to a roadworthy level it would be nice.

Food for thought.....what's more rare? Fifties and sixties cars are plentiful, these big ones were all crushed for their weight or used up in demo derbys.

That's a nice solid car, and a fairly unique one at that.  Hopefully it will be saved, but understandable if it ends up as parts.

The mid-seventies cars still haven't caught on that much with hobbyists even though they are the last of the really big cars, there will likely never be anything like them ever built again.  I guess it's because most of us never drooled over them as youngsters, but regardless they are big, comfortable cars with (in this case) plenty of power and creature comforts.  Probably won't find much better of a ride for long highway trips.

Meanwhile, most of the stuff from the sixties and early seventies still seems to be appreciating in value, but anything past 1972-ish has remained stagnant with a few exceptions (like F bodies).

Good on you Carl for giving the board members a chance to save it.  I hope it can remain an intact vehicle for some years to come.

 I only part out 66s, Carl knows this. Rare cars need to be saved or what do we have  left, its probably the reason I have three 409 money pits in my yard

needs ralleys and skirts, but I don't think they came on the parri.

 Awesome!  I hope it works out for you!

The Parisienne was different in that it used a lowly Catalina grille with Grand Ville new rectangular headlights, the only 75 Pontiac to do so. Those angled power controls on the doors are so Pontiac though. The complete interior, both door panels & seats are sourced from the 74 Bonneville.

Check out the pic below. It shows automatic level control as being available only with the 455. How many were built? Not many I'd wager.

Good, that car is not a parts car.
