Did Canadian model 65 Pontiacs come with a Chevy 327 from the factory? Like this one?

Are you jerking my chain?
canadian built pontiacs used chevy motors and i believe were built on chev frames - the chev wheelbase was abit shorter than us pontiacs.
my 1st car was a 65 pontiac parisienne custom sport convertible - 283 with 2 spd power glide

Would that make body parts different from US built Pontiacs?

MUST be a lot of torque reaction to need a chain on the rh side, when the normal restraints were only on the lh side!

Canadian sheet metal was specific to Canadian production. Canadian car was basically a 7/8 scale US model.
