I can't believe it's already December! Where did 2015 go? One thing I did notice about 2015 is there seemed to be a lot of 1966 Pontiac discussion on Canadian Poncho. I think it's safe to say that the 1966 Canadian Pontiac's are one of the most popular years on this forum. What better way to end our year th...

This month I'm proud to feature this stunning 1966 Beaumont Sport Deluxe convertible owned by Jack Brochu. Jacks story on how he managed to obtain this car has to be one of the most interesting I've read in a long time. Take it away Jack.

I'm very pleased to showcase Gordon Hunter's exquisite 1957 Pontiac Laurentian four door hardtop for October. The greatest joy I get out of running Canadian Poncho is seeing all these fantastic cars come out of the woodwork! Gord's Pontiac looks better than new thank's to a frame off restoration p...

Maybe it was a good thing that we didn't get a feature car for June until the last minute. Like they say, "Good things come to those who wait" and we certainly have a "good thing" for June! Call me crazy but my favorite body style is the two door sedan. Dale and L.J Hamill own this impeccable 1963 Strato Chi...

If you were alive in the 1950's and took a walk down any busy street in Canada, there's a good chance the majority of the cars you would see would be Pontiacs. The reason for this is simple. A smart new car buyer in 1953 knew that he could walk into his Pontiac dealer and buy a Canadian built Pontiac for abou...

Perhaps one of the greatest joys for me in starting Canadian Poncho site is the number of extremely rare Canadian Poncho's that have shown up on here. Roger Hornby's awesome 1966 L79 Acadian is not only rare, but it ooozes "sleeper"! We'll let Roger take it from here. "I purchased th...

I'm amazed at the number of incredible Beaumont's that have survived after all these years. Before Canadian Poncho it was rare for me to spot a nice one. It's refreshing to know that there are quite a few surviving examples receiving excellent care. One such Beaumont is Kevin Cheyne's fantastic 67 SD...

It is my pleasure to feature Scott Jacklin's gorgeous 1968 Pontiac 2+2 for February. It's truly rare to see a '68 2+2 and ever rarer to see one as nice as this one. The 396 is icing on the cake. I've had the pleasure of seeing this car in person and it's every bit as nice as it looks in the photos. Scott shares t...
