1955 Pontiac Chieftain 2dr Hardtop on 2040-cars

Year:1955 Mileage:98000
Location:

Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States

Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States

 This stunning Pontiac is a mostly original car with professionally restored bodywork and interior.  It was restored from a clean and rust free California car back to its original red over black livery. See some images of the car prior to restoration on the poster board in the pictures.   The restoration work is more than 10 years old, but it shows very little wear. The paint and bodywork are wonderful, smooth and straight with excellent panel fit.  Since restoration, the car has been garaged and driven lightly.  The engine is fitted with an aftermarket alternator. The engine and undercarriage are clean but have not been restored or detailed like the exterior.  The engine has the optional Carter 4bbl carburetor.  The hydramatic transmission shifts roughly at times.  Could be a linkage adjustment or just normal, I don't know for sure.  The car has been driven on old car tours and is certainly capable of long distance drives.  The engine is strong, quiet and does not smoke. 

I am trying to describe this car accurately, but there is no substitute for a personal inspection. I welcome you or a delegate to inspect this car in person.  It is located near Albuquerque, NM, not far from the airport. I am listing this car for a friend.  If you have specific questions about the car, I will try to get them answered promptly.  The car has a current NM title in the owner's name.

This is a no reserve auction so there is no need to ask me what the reserve is. Please do NOT bid unless you are in a position to complete this contract.  The high bidder is going to own this beautiful Pontiac.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am

Wed, 15 May 2013

When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
