Damn thats where my 85 parisienne went!
Hes got my car and my appliances. Quick get the Batmobile.
I sure miss that car.
 
Oh My God! Where is a cop when you need one. Do you realize how unsafe that is? I'd hate to be inside that car when the refrigerator comes crashing through the roof!
 
@tolivac......

(Your Quote): That man carries his appliance collection with him-the AC condenser unit looks like the Lennox unit I have.That poor washer lid!-guess these are going to the---KRUSHER!!

(My Response): And I guess that includes that poor old Pontiac too, right??? I can see where it is sagging on the rear passenger side with that heavy load that it is carrying. If that Pontiac can come out of that without a hitch, then that's going to be saying a hell of a lot. I think that Pontiac has seen MUCH BETTER days.

The only thing that looks half way salvageable of that entire lot is that 1965 Kenmore Model 800 Dryer.

Pontiac from home

Did you know that the Pontiac Parisienne originated in Canada? This car was introduced here in the late 50s, and became available in the U.S. in the 80s. Pontiacs in Canada were based on Chevy's from the 50s through most of the 70s, when the genuine U.S. models started coming here. The Parisienne looked like the American Bonneville on the outside, but was mechanically identical to the Chevy Impala, then later, the Caprice. Some Canadian trivia for you;)
 
The reason the Parisenne came to America for 1983 was....

because in 1982 there was no full sized Pontiac available in America. The biggest Pontiac available in the 1982 US line up was the Bonneville G which was nothing more than the intermediate LeMans 4 door being renamed (the coupe version remained the Grand Prix). The CAFE requirement that was in vogue at the time was going to up the average MPG a car manufactures line had to reach on average and the only way Pontiac felt they could do that was to ax the full size Bonneville/Catalina series. If I am not mistaken the CAFE was either not raised or not as much as first planned so Pontiac then realized it could bring back the full sized line of cars again for 1983 (by then the recession caused by the 1979 energy crisis was easing and people were buying big cars again). Instead of renaming the intermediate cars again for the second time in as many years so they could call the full sized cars Bonneville again, Pontiac just decided to use the Canadian name Parisenne since the cars were gonna come from Canada anyway.....PAT COFFEY
 
If memory serves

The Parisenne came out for 1959 just like the Bonneville did and knocked the Laurentian downstairs to MOL from TOL just like the Bonneville did to the Star Chief here in the US...PAT COFFEY
