Canadian Serial Number Decoding
At this time, the only information I can assist with decoding for Canadian 1949–1954 Pontiacs is the vehicle’s serial number. This gives the essential details about your car: year, series, and basic model type.
Keep in mind the model number on your serial tag may have a suffix indicating a sub-model (Business, Deluxe, seating for wagons, etc). This extra info is not contained in the serial number decoded by this tool.
The data in this database is organized and described just as it appears in the Canadian Pontiac Master Parts Catalog.
