A car just like this turned up in Barrie flea market approx 18 years ago, brought in from Quebec. It subsequently underwent a frame off and the last time I saw it was at the Fleetwood Country Cruise in London Ontario in about 2008, where all of the resto photos were on display. It was red then but I don't remember if it had a white top. When I first saw it in Barrie several years before it was white on top. I don't know if this is the same car but how many of them could there have been with this powertrain and in this color combination?

I agree. This must be rare.

Yes this is the car I'm talking about. The restored pics are the ones from the Fleetwood Cruise in in 2008. And the old photo of the car with fog lights on the bumper is how the car was when I saw it in Barrie years before.

I'm guessing the red and white car is not the same one that was in London in 2008 since the restored car  was what appears to be Marimba red with the same color roof.

 Probably the same car. They had 409 emblems by the V8, which was not factory on a Cdn Pontiac. They also said they located the car in Ontario before the resto.

The autotrader pics are not as attractive as the pics from the original resto appearing in the cp link. In that link, it is said the car was one of 2 63 409 4 speed 2 door Parisiennes with a police pkg. I guess you could order that on a non police unit. 

It sure is a nice 63.
