It's a Canadian Pontiac, so yes - they came with Chevy engines.

Yes, that horrid X frame. Would love to have those dog dish caps though……..non “clip” style.

They were available with a 261ci six, a 283ci V8 or a 348ci V8 in 1961. Top of the line was a 348 tripower rated at 280hp. You can see Canadian Pontiac brochures at https://oldcarbrochures.org/Canada/G...iac/index.html
(In my collection of 1961 factory literature I have copies of the 1961 brochure both in English and French. )

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
