Same body style as the 75 Parisienne 455 I had. It was a great riding, great handling car for its size.
455 in a Parisienne ? wow
Yes, a Pontiac 455. I didn't think much of it at the time because the truly unique Canadian cars had started to go away by then. The car is long gone but I still have the engine.
I'm pretty sure the 400SBC in my '75 Laurentian was blue.
Was a 455 Pontiac block available in '75 Canadian built Laurentians and Parisiennes?
Something funny looking about that car without any vinyl roof. The missing trim around the rear quarter windows makes me think it originally came with one.
Great looking in that colour though and with the Pontiac rallyes.

My 75 Parisienne had a blue Pontiac 455 engine. It was fully loaded with AC, F41, power everything, rally wheels, etc. It did not appear to have been altered. It was a rust free running, driving Alberta car that I paid $200 for in 1989 and drove it for a year until it spun a crank bearing.
