It appears the cars are in Quebec. Phone number is area code 514 and those are Quebec plates on the Grand Prix. See his other cars for sale? Must be nice!

As neat as the 8 bolt wheels are, I am not a fan. The car is really really cool. I think his asking price is more than fair. $20k in that car finished and you have a gem.

That is one Pontiac that never did it for me.

I've seen many of them at the POCI conventions over the years but I can't get the design to work for me.

As far as the wheels, they look awful without the trim rings in this picture (personal opinion) and with trim rings on I think it's one of the most beautiful wheels ever made.

For some reason I think blue steel wheels and poverty caps would look cool.

Subjective for sure, bottom line, totally awesome car, but I've always seen it as a weird roofline with a Buick rear. Could grow on you. Maybe better without vinyl?

I guess they were getting ready for the 69's, kind of Collonading it?

I like it. One of our members from New Brunswick (buickjef ?) has a green one that was bought locally.

FWIW, though, I've always thought the '68 Grande Parisienne was the best of both worlds with the hideaway grille combined with the sleek fastback and nicer rear end of the regular Parisienne.

Agreed, I think our's is much better looking than the southern version.

I always liked that little strip of colour above the doors on some of the vinyl top cars, such as 65 Buick Skylark and 70 Cutlass , but it just doesn't fit this one. Perhaps it's just the angle the pic is taken from.

The subject car looks quite decent but just doesn't jump out at me.
