Got a complete rolling chassis for free
Drug it home the other day. I was told it was from a 64 Bonny. I checked the codes on the engine. This is what I found.
Engine code 38P Vin starts with 8 63 S 543797 heads. So, this crosses over to a 63, 303 hp, 4 bbl, automatic with A/C. I gave it a squirt of gas & put a set of jumper cables on it. Engine fired up! I don't have my books with me. Can someone look up the "8" & let me know if this is a Bonny chassis or maybe Catalina?

I know 63 is the year, S is Southgate plant. #8 would designate the model number. I just don't have my books with me to look it up.

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.
