Certainly not an original power train but that would sure be a cool car.

a friend found my 67 in Fenlon Falls when it was parked on a Sunoco station lot where they were piling all of the snow off the lot onto of it. It was 12 years old then with a rusty hood and fenders Still have it!

Thought GM only installed 4 barrel 409 engines in Canadian Pontiacs in 65. They were using up inventory while the Tonawanda engine plant made the 396 for Chevrolet. Saw one in Cannington many years ago. Red with white top convertible. It was mint.

We've seen one example where a 65 Parisienne had the dual quad set up dealer installed shortly after delivery. Its still in original owner hands.

The 65 409 Custom Sport convertible that was for sale in old autos was an original 283/PG car, converted to 409 w/ twin Edelbrock AFB style carbs. Powerglide rebuilt at time of conversion.
