Hi, Just picked up a 1954 Pontiac Chieftan 4 Door. Gonna drop it and drive it-after i fix the motor and brakes. This is my first project. Car needs new rocker panels, drivers floor board, brakes.. Car hasnt been driven in about 15 years. Got it to run pouring gas down the carb. Fuel/vacuum pump seems bad so far. Looking foward to be active on the HAMB!

Welcome from Califias.

Poncho's are the God's gift to the human race, regardless of their doors.

HOWEVER, being as it's the Canadian version, which technically means it's almost a damn Chevrolet, we will ask that you make as many Chevrolet sacrifices as possible, in your quest to restore your Tin Injun.
