TerryB Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Great looking car, a bit of a reso-mod with the replacement engine and other changes. I wonder what the resale market thinks of cars like this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingrudy Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Beautiful car inside and out. Any modifications have been done in good taste IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1912Staver Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 It's practically in my back yard. If that's 45K Canadian I would say a reasonable price compared to my often way over priced local market. Clearly they really want it to sell. Looks like a great car. The Canadian version of the Impala is reasonably rare even here in Canada. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesR Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Great car, yes I'd love to have it, too. A 350 SBC - normally a turnoff, but I think the Canadian Laurentians had Chevy engines from the factory. The rare instance where dropping a SBC into an old non-Chevy isn't such a major alteration from original. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then 283,and the 348 W Chevrolet "big block". No USA Pontiac built V8's available in any Oshawa Canada built Pontiac's. The Laurentian was the top line until 58 when the Parisienne made it's debut. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
