Greg tells us about his Pontiac:
Don,
      Here is the picture you requested of my  47 Pontiac which is under construction. The engine and trans combo is from a '57 Pontiac Bonneville, 347 cu.with  tri-power backed up with a 4 speed hydramatic. My intent is to build a nostalgic street rod of the '50s. The body and interior are going to be as stock as I can make them.
    As soon as the weather clears and it stops raining I will move the car outside for a better picture.  I really don't want to get any rain on the bare sheet metal.
      I also have a '46 2507 as a parts car, it is extreemly rusted out.  It spent a lot of time on the Washington coast running up and down the beach and in and out of the ocean . I wll get the specific info to you so you can add it to your registry.  When I finish my 47,  I will undoubtably have some parts that would be of value to our fellow Pontiac enthusiasts.
     I notice that my coupe is the only one in your registry, could this be an indication that this model is not to plentiful?

Greg,
        Yes, your car is a rare one indeed. A few seem to be finding the site lately though and there are two other new 2527's  with webpages. One is a Business Coupe that was made in Canada. I understand that the Business Coupes had only one seat and the Sport Coupes had two seats with a "split" front seat. I learned about the two-piece front seat from another Sport Coupe owner who promised to send pictures soon. That will bring our online total of 2527's up to four.  Good luck with your project and keep us updated.                         Thanks-Don
