Default 65 Pontiac canadian Parisienne custom sport

Hi again,

and this is my 1965 convertible, canadian build.. i know not many Pontiac enthusiasts love canadian cars, but its very rare and have the Chevrolet drivetrain, frame and is very friendly to restore.. all "underwear" is Impala floors and so i could change all the rusty sheets easy with large full floors..
The car gets a big resto ..frame off.. and now it`s a great daily driver for the summer time.. Have you every seen an canadian Poncho with an TRI POWER? It`s the orginal 283 with Powerglide.. !!

Some pics.. hope you like it!!

Bjoern, I love the new photos of the Bonneville...nice to see it taking shape and hope to see it in the flesh this summer. Who knows, maybe by next summer I'm have my 65 convertible on the road too!
