Cool pontiacs everyone! What are you're own experiences with seeing them at shows? It's rare that i see many around the Philly area.
Early Pontiacs are a bargain usually much cheaper than equivalent Chevies. Parts are readily available and they are, well, not a Chevy. (Not knocking Chevy but bolstering something outside the norm). I know of only 2 or 3 runners that I've seen around (Houston area).
Montechris, I painted it with Duplicolor Detroit Diesel Alpine green. I liked it better than the dark green that it was "supposed" to be.
out in the boonies of New Mexico Geez , having moved from SoCal I thought Santa Rosa in NE New Mexico where I live is small . It's practically Gotham City compared to Reserve , but I still gotta drive 120 miles to get a Starbucks
Van, I thought we took pictures that day we looked at it, I wish you woulda picked that up too, Mom's get over it, they get mad then they get glad.
My 50. In the works and tired of seeing all the primer. Hope to get it straight enough to spray before spring.
Here's my '54 all original 6v 6cyl manual 3"blocks and '49 hubcaps. Hey shadowmtkustomz any info on the black 49? is that a 54 buick grill? Any details on the grille swap?
Here is a shot of mine around xmas a year or two ago. Its a 53 Canadian Pontiac chieftain. Powered by a 67 Pontiac inline OHC Sprint motor.
LOVE this car...... Check it out every chance I get... That sprint 6 sounds AWESOME! Hows it goin Brent?
You love the colour? Yeah people sure liked green back in the seventies...! Dont have any pictures from it lately but i'll get it out on the weekend and take a few happy snaps.
I used a '94 Caprice Classic front frame stub under the '51 wagon. Huge sway bar, big brakes, 5 on 5, which let me use the original wheels after clearancing the calipers a little. It does push the wheels outboard a little, so if you want to drag the crossmember on the ground, tire clearance will be an issue. Mines low enough a floor jack won't go under the crossmember as it is, to my eye, that's low enough.
any one know if there is a difference between the grilles on the Canadian Pontiac and the American Pontiacs? im looking at some grille pieces for my 50 and the guy doesn't know if there is a difference
