Can anyone post some good quality pictures of the 66 Grande Parisienne, side profiles please? I am interested to see the body lines. Google pics are really small.
Welcome from Canada's east coast! Nice car and palm trees.

Sadly we had no oil gauge or temp gauge available in a full size 66 Canadian Pontiac. The US models had a nice cluster for them but our cluster uses a printed circuit and the US cars use individual wires.
I did a conversion to a US cluster about 8 years ago on a 66 Grande Parisienne I had.
Hey Guys, Thank you ALL for the Warm responses to my post.
Do any of you know if the 66 Impala Rally Guages I put in my
car were ever offered as a factory option in the 1966 Canadian
Pontiacs? I thought they were a natural fit in the car
and matched the stock dash guages Perfectly!
Imop they look more suited in the Grande than they look in the Chevrolet. Guess they didn't want to position the Grande too much like a GP. Keep the costs down?
Are you looking for a woodgrain finish dash or will a black finish do? (Ie can you apply the woodgrain yourself.) It will be a lot easier to find a dash if you can do the woodgrain. I have a few parts 66's but most are Parisiennes with the black dash. If I remember right the Canadian Grandes had the Dinoc woodgrain applied while the American GP's actually had real woodgrain.
Shipping to you will be a bugger though given the size nd fragility of that big cast piece.
Any chance of getting closer look at the firewall tag just to see the build date, etc?
I just pick up a 66 pontiac grande parisienne,factory big block,4 speed,after running the tag found it's was the same color as yours and it has the black interior,unfortunately the motor and transmission was taken.hoping to track it down,anyway your car is awesome I would like to get mind as nice
