Hello Canadien, I noticed on your little biography blurb that you're an automotive historian. Tell us all about it will you please? It's of course a topic that is well respected on such a website like this one. Really looking forward to hearing about your talents here. Thanks.

Hi 69 Tin Indian,

I am indeed an automotive historian and have written extensively for Old Autos. I have done many articles that included Canadian cars including our favourite Pontiacs, Acadians & Beaumonts. I have every sales brochure for Canadian Pontiacs from 1937(first year for a truly Canadian Pontiac-called the 224) to the late 70s as well as all Acadian & Beaumont brochures as well as an extensive research library on Canadian cars. I have also collected lots of great photos that I took of Canadian cars. I am also a registered appraiser.

Hope this helps.

I looked at a 67 Grande P. last summer but not quite as described.

regards

Fred, the same reason why there are not too many in the eastern provinces.... Rusted out looooong time ago!

Sure I can do an article on Canadian Poncho. Very tied up now in articles but will pursue later this Fall.
