To me, the car appears to bear DNA from a lot of marques. I see a Mercury Cougar, a Buick Riviera, a Lincoln Towne Car and the targa-topped rear window line of the 1969-1975 mid-engine VW- Porsche 914. It is none of those. It is a Zimmer Quicksilver.

Today, no Quicksilver parts are available for re- pair purposes. As mentioned, the body sits on a Pontiac Fiero frame. To house the body the frame was modified by adding one foot extensions fore and aft. The body design is the work of GM stylist Don Johnson, whose signature appears on the doorsill plate, a la GM/ Fisher Body fashion. The car carried a MSRP of $51,950.

Yes, now and then I do get a communication that is collector car related. Here is some of what has landed in my email box from readers and web site visitors: ______________________________________________ Hello - Having some time to sit down and enjoy the Christmas season I came across your Aug. 2011 newsletter ref. us weird Canadians and their cars. Enjoyed it! [Ed.—Hey, I did not refer to “youse guys” as weird. Different, yes. You’re the ones who have currency known as a looney, not us! I find the differ- ences (sometimes subtle, sometimes not) to be of interest.] YOUR RIGHT – THAT WAS THE ‘LABEL’ I USED, WE LIKE WEIRD / DIFFERENT / LOONEY. I’M NOT SURE I’M THE ‘FRONTENAC’ GURU THAT YOU REFER TO IN YOUR NEWSLETTER – BUT I AM A YOUNG GUY WITH AN INTEREST IN OLD CARS – IN WHICH I’M NOT SURE THE NEXT GEN- ERATION HAS THE SAME VIEWPOINT? I am trying to do a few repairs on my 1962 Olds 88 Dynamic. Specifically, I need a diagram for the vac- uum hoses. Can you help? Hi Dave.... I wanted to say hello, and hope all is well.... The Hwy. 27 Tour is going great, about 600 regis- tered this year, keeps getting bigger every year.... Mark it down, August 21-26-2012, get in the car, come join us again… Take care Dave, stay in touch.... http://www.old27tour.com/ I am an "old school" letterman and pinstriper. I learned of your newsletter, Car Collector Chronicles, from Captain Bob with the Hotrod Radio Show. Keep up the great work on your newsletter! I really enjoyed it and passed along the word to many of my fellow car nuts. Just wondering if you needed any material for your news letter? [Ed.— Yes!] I found a 394 c.i. 4 bbl carb and intake manifold here in Tauranga, New Zealand. I have sand blasted and painted it (no, not the correct colour), Chevy orange. It came out great. No one here will worry about the colour difference. As I can not get the correct paint shipped here I decided that I would got with Chevy Orange. At least it is a GM colour. I had the carb rebuilt here by a Malasian bourn chap that really knows his stuff. He was able to rebuild as well as acid bathe and electro plate all parts. I have the correct air cleaner which I am having chrome plated at the moment. I have the correct decals sent over from Fusick's in USA. I was surfing on the internet and found your Cadillac website with information on the subject (repair of Se- ries III Bendix Hydrovac). I have three units to refurbish and repair kits for this hydrovac seem to be very rare. Can you help me? I need at least 3 repair kits for the hydrovac. I’m restoring a 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood (body 6019X). It come from the factory with an air conditioner with roof ducts. I have these ducts missing. I can't find on the web any photo or mention of these ducts.
