    Glenn had sent me his signup form and photos way back in August. He said that a webpage was not necessary
and I put all of his messages in a folder and promptly forgot about it.  To make up for that I will use all three photos he sent. He also deserves credit for being the first Business Coupe to send in a picture.  Way to go Glenn!

Glenn tells us about his Pontiac:
    "Purchased the car on October 31, 1992 for $550 cdn in Red Deer, Alberta. The car was functional however it lacked brakes.  It came with a flat head six, 3 spd.  It now has a 350/350 eng / tranny, Nova rearend, Mustang front suspension and Honda bucket seats.  The rear fenders are welded solid to the body and the rear hatch has been shaved.  The paint is Dodge Blue.  All work except minor sheet metal work was done by my father in-law and myself."
    P.S. I was told by an old timer, Canadian Pontiac (40's) cars typically came with flat head engines while Canadian Chevy cars came with the OHV engines. He also mentioned that perhaps my car was made in Saskatchewan.
    My girls are now 8 and 6 1/2.  It seems most of my friends are nagging me to finish it.  My father wants to drive it before he dies (he's over reacting).  My wife has been very supportive but reminds me that it is only a Business coupe and that it only seats two, not four.  Perhaps this winter (be it long and very cold) I will venture out to finish the suspension, wiring and interior.
A page is not nescessary.  However, if you wish, I can scan in my car both before and after. This is the most interesting sites I've visted in a long time. I am interested to learn more about my car.                   -Glenn  8-13-99

        Glenn,
    We would all like to learn more about your car. And for that matter all old Pontiacs! I hope this site is helping many of us to do just that. You page is the first to show a "before, between, and after" picture. It looks great. Just goes to show what a "little" hard work can do! I have not heard from you since last summer. Maybe the long winter you mentioned has given you enough free time to finish up your project. Let us know how it is going.
