Customs How many hamb members have pontiac safaris?

I have always liked and previously owned nomads but never owned a safari and I don't remember seeing a post on just them. Does anyone here own one and can post a picture of theirs or a picture of a buddys safari? I wouldn't mind one myself. Exterminator

 

There's one for sale at Main street motor's in Denison Texas

 

Do you happen to have a picture of it?

 

pretty sure there's one or two on here....bump up....

 

Denison is right in my area so if it is a charcoal and silver 57 it might be my old one.

 

Main Street Motors

 

Here are pics of a '56 that I nearly bought back in the '80s. A guy I knew said no body parts were available for it and talked me out of it. Dumbass me.

 

Not too many around it seems. I wonder why?

 

Had.... 3 the two door HT was forced of the road and smack into a pole, left a real nice new center area...(bummer)
and the wagon and the copy nomad both so briefly i never got pictures

 

got 2 57's

 

I drive a '58 daily.

 

This is a 56 I owned for 12 years. Sold to make the down $$ on my house

 

Bought a 56 about 15+ yrs ago for $2k. Sat in my driveway a few months and the wife said sell. So I put it on ebay. Got $5500 and sent it to California.

Should have kept it.

 

Picture of a friends 56, really nice almost rust free car. Pix was taken in Pigeon Forge 2017 at the Shades run.

 

I can't remember who has it but their is a drop dead gorgeous one owned by a Hamber!

It is perfect. HRP

 

My old 56. I sketched it out with nomad wheel well openings.. Sold it and regret selling.

 

Rocky,I think you were on to some great looking styling changes,the colors are perfect. HRP

 

I think you are referring to JiveBomber's car. Real nice very mild custom.

 

I have what's left of a 58 I used for a demo derby car a long time ago.

 

I've owned my 55 Safari since 1994 and bought a 57 in 1997. Sold the 57 last summer to finance a new roof for the house.

 

Does anyone happen to know the ratio in production numbers between the Nomads and Safaris? I assume that the Safaris are far more rare than the Nomads, just curious as to how much rarer. Thanks, Don.

 

while going thru a farm yard months ago I noticed the owner had a very nice tailgate for a Safari stored in the dry barn. Can't recall the year but if anyone is in need of info I could contact him. He stated that he would sell it.

 

Does he have the upper section as well? I'm interested in one of those as the one on my 55 is bent beyond repair.

 

Back in the 70’s through the 90’s a neighbor had one, going to build this someday. Don’t know whatever happened to it. Guess I’ll go ask him...

Safarinut, I will call him this weekend. Let you know what he says.

 

This is not a Safari but it caught my eye and has to be a rare bird...

 

The Pontiac Safari Club shows 55-57 Nomads at 22,375 units against the Safari at 9,094 units produced...Happy Holidays To All...

 

Thanks for that info, Lou.

 

I had one I think it was a 55 but not sure, when I sold my Shop.
in Tucson, AZ.
I sold to a guy that had a Restoration Shop in Tucson that was
28 years ago, for 1800 dollars
I have a Picture of the Car.
but I don't know how to put it on the Hamb

Just my 3.5 cents

Thank you it is appreciated! Merry Christmas!
