    A fellow I know of found a Safari up the Ottawa Valley a couple of years ago. I hope to see him this summer and find out what he is doing with it.

    A lot of Safaris were used for Nomad parts. The only parts I need are one dash ash tray, with stainless cover, and the rear seat side panels stainless trim. I can make the panels or buy Nomad panels but am unable to find out if any other 57 Pontiacs use that piece of curved trim. I included the best picture I could find of the rear piece. If anybody is at one of these 57 Safari wrecks please look for those rear trim pieces, happy to pay for your effort. thanks

    I don't know, I got it out of the Denver area, it was an East Coast car at one time, hence the extensive rust.

    Look at C/L Tucson. I believe there is an Olds wagon there now. Reasonably priced.
    Theyre my favorite GM offering from tri5 too.
     
  10. I agree.
