Default '64 Canadian 409 Pontiac

Not mine but what a neat car. You'd be the only one at the cruise in guaranteed.

Nice looking car but they don't have any photos of the engine, the most interesting and noteworthy component of this rare beast.

Nice! There's two engine pics there....
I always liked the non-wide track style as you have better wheel choices with all the extra room in those wheel wells.
Very nice car even with that 409 in there.

For some reason I can't see the engine pics in the eBay auction, thanks for posting the picture.

To each his own... but to me, '59 and later Canadian Pontiacs just look wierd without Wide-Track. However- I lust for the '55-'57s- they look like 7/8-scale Pontiacs to me!

Jack, I agree they look weird with stock wheels. I would fill the wheel well with some nice deep dish wheels. Even with small offset 15 x 7" wheels on my '66 Cat I had to trim the edge of the quarter on one side.

Her are a couple pictures of my brothers car. He dechromed it, added the GP grill pulled the 327 and installed a 389. The rear wheels sit forward in the wheelwell because of Chev frame being shorter. It had a tall rear tire and when jacked up the tire would touch the rocker panel.
