Dont know what you could do to make that thing look any better. The wheels are perfect. Congrats on having it on the road and put some miles on it now.

Great idea to lengthen the rear trailing arms. It resolves the visual issue of the 120 inch wheelbase body on the 119 inch X frame chassis and allows those wide rear wheels and tires that make your car look so good.  Love it.

Now the next question is. When is this fine automobile going to be featured in C.P. as a feature car special. You must know that it has to be.

Im trying to condense my thoughts as i have own my parisienne for 38 years. I drove it for 6 years and 6000 miles before i blew it apart. Im hoping to get into the upholstery shop in July and then have some awesome pictures to share. In the meantime i have two months to tinker and write a story.

Great patience and well worth that extra time as it is gorgeous. I remember talking to you about it a few years ago at the Winnipeg coffee meet on my way through. Rims are killer. Very tastefully done. Good job Pete.

Took my son out for a cruise. He has never been out for a ride in it except around the block. We did 20 km on Monday evening. My son Andrew has been instrumental in the wiring of the pontiac.

It's great seeing it back on the road! I bet that feels pretty good after that long.
