Jack, I agree, the 1965 is the best-looking Pontiac, and I like the '68 better than the '69.  As far as the '67 goes, who knows what they were thinking?!  But I do like the Grand Prix.

My feelings exactly pertaining to the '67 Pete.  I recall thinking upon seeing this car for the first time that the Catalina/Parisienne grille was coarse looking and reminded me of a scoop shovel while the Grand Prix looked trim, classy and elegant.  I recall wondering why GM didn't go with this nose for the Catalina and devise something slightly different for the GP.  The tail lights on the GP were different and maybe if the Catalina had standard side by side headlights that weren't hideaway.....?
