Here's a photo of a 67 Grand Prix with a 396. Sorry the engine isn't clear.I saw this car at the Three Hills cruise in this year. It had the Chev rally wheels with Pontiac centers on it.

Man, there's some cool stuff out there! I'm glad I started this thread! I've also heard a rumour of a dentist who lives near London, Ontario who has a bunch of big block powered Canadian Pontiacs. Anyone here confirm?
There's a couple of 427 4 speed Biscaynes in this area- a green one owner unrestored 2dr sedan that shows up at the east London cruise night once in a while- I think it comes from Hamilton. There is also one from Dorchester, Ontario that shows up at local shows from time to time- both I believe are 425hp 427 cars..

Here is a photo of the green 69 Biscayne out of Brantford Ontario which is owned by a friends of mine Don and Connie. Don is a founding member of a local car club called the "Piston Pushers".He is the original owner of the car which was bought new in Hamilton. The first modification he made was to swap the 427 badges for 327 badges. The car was a real money maker on the streets of Toronto back in the day. One night Don was arrested for street racing and spent the night in jail. When I first heard this story, Connie was standing quietly beside him. When she saw the surprised look on my face she said "Its a true story. I was his girlfriend at the time and I was the one who made his bail". What do you do when you find a good woman like that? Marry her of course.
