Car History

This Car Was Built on The 16th Of April 1958 at The

General Motors Manufacturing Facility in Oshawa,

Ontario. It Was Shipped to Hogan Pontiac in Toronto

On The 28th Of July 1958 and Was Sold to Mr. Leo

Truchon In North Bay Ontario on The 18th Of August

1958. Around 1985 It Was Acquired by Mr. Ken Curran

Who Lived in North Bay at The Time.

It Was Relayed to Me That Mr. Curran Was A Member

Of The Armed Forces and He Drove the Car Very Little.

When He Was Posted to A New Location, He Would Take

The Car with Him and Arrange Storage for It.

Apparently, That Happened Several Times but When The

Air Force Base in Edmonton Closed and He Was Posted

To Winnipeg, The Car Did Not Go with Him.

I Purchased the Car in Edmonton, From Mr. Curran On

The 10th Of October 1992 With 33,765 Miles Showing

On The Odometer.

The Current Mileage Is Just Over 55,000 Miles and The

Car Resides in North Vancouver, British Columbia.
