1962 Pontiac Parisienne Convertible

[tigercars]

This car just popped up on eBay in my home town, Birmingham, Al. Is the Parisienne built on the Booneville chassis or the the shorter Catalina. Car appears to have a 283 and I assume a powerguilde tranny. Any info on 62 Parisieene convertibles would be helpful.

Pariesienne is a Canadian built car with an Impala chassis. Note the narrower wheelebase. there will be several other differences from a US built Pontiac also.
