Nice bunch! Makes me wish I had not sold mine so I could cover the costs of moving the shop!

Very nice big bodies.

Man, I think Chevy nailed the big-car look in the sixties more than most of the competition.

I did the big Pontiacs and they sure are sweet, but the big Chevys just got it exactly right in most cases.

The solution is the ultimate 60's GM B'Body cars, Canadian Pontiacs!.
Tough to top 60's Pontiac styling w/ Chevrolet powertrains incl. L72's!.
Earlier years too, what's prettier than a Pontiac Bubbletop...w/ factory W-power!.

Pete, I like Canadian Pontiacs, but you're not going to convince me that a 348 3x2 Parisienne is cooler than a 389 Tri-Power Ventura. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif[/img]

Indeed, my pleasure. As we all know, it isn't every day that you can see a real-deal SS 427 convertible, freshly restored. And what a great story! We look forward to meeting you and seing the car.

Diego; this is a &quot;brought back from dead&quot; documented real SS 427 convertible with an awesome family related story. I will let the owner chime in!
