Re: 427/4 speed bench seat 68 Pontiac Strato Chief's?
Rare but yes they built these...and as an RPO, nothing Copo required! .
I love Chevy powered Canadian Ponchos, especially the big cars! . They even built W-motor Pontiac big cars and I've always been searching for my own dream...the 'possible built' late '61 409 Strato-Chief...'62's did happen! .  ~ Pete

Re: 427/4 speed bench seat 68 Pontiac Strato Chief's?
Back in the '60s there was a '66 Parisienne convertible. It had the L72, 4 speed, and all the other good performance parts. Wasn't a match for my Ram Air Firebird
 , but was pretty quick considering its size. That would be one rare beast.

Re: 427/4 speed bench seat 68 Pontiac Strato Chief's?
Sorry if double post...seems the other went into the wind? .
Anyway, the car sounds very cool Mark...lay some pics on us if you can! . Nice user-name too although w/ a famous name like Hodges, well I'd expect a different brand?! . (Astro-Jets were the Canadian-Pontiac Mk1V Turbo-Jets...air cleaner stickers and all!) I think L36's were the highest HP 'advertised' 427's available in '66-'69 Canadian Ponchos but the L72's flew as an order (except in '67 of course) since they were really a Chevy chassis w/ Poncho clothes. . ~ Pete

Re: 427/4 speed bench seat 68 Pontiac Strato Chief's?
Keith, is that 68 in good shape? I'm partial to the 69s as my dad had a 350 Strato Chief 2dr hardtop. I'd love to find one with a big block- any 69 Canadian Pontiac!

There are a couple big block Beaumonts on this site but I don't know of any members with BBC Strato Chiefs or any other big Canadian Pontiac.
