Incredibly rare, UK-supplied from new and accompanied by a huge history file.
First registered in the UK on the 12/05/1967 as one of just 78 export models in total. The accompanying General Motors build sheet confirms shipping on 12/12/1966. Our vendor has generously included the cherished private registration PGE 8E. Supplied with its original handbooks, factory build sheets, brochures and reams of receipts. Finding another factory right-hand drive Parisienne with UK registration from new might be a challenge. The Pontiac Parisienne was built in right-hand drive by General Motors in Canada until 1968 as an export car to Australia primarily, few cars were sold new in the UK.
Available as a saloon or a convertible they were famous for the luxury of their interiors and their high standard specification. This rare right-hand drive saloon was built in December 1966, shipped later that month and first registered in the UK on the 12th May 1967. General Motors ceased all right-hand drive exports in 1968, thus making the right-hand drive Parisienne a very rare car, indeed in 1967 only 78 were produced. The accompanying General Motors of Canada build sheet details the myriad options and the original colour of Granada Gold Metallic and Parchment vinyl interior with black dashboard.
The black coachwork was re-sprayed from the Gold in 2005, suiting the car perfectly and the interior was re-trimmed in white vinyl and light coloured.
