Check out this beautiful ’55 Pontiac Chieftain 2-door Catalina Hardtop! Back in the day the ’55 lineup was famous for introducing Pontiacs 1st modern V8 engine, a 287ci Strata-Streak V8 paired to a 4 speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission, along with stylish postless side windows in the 2-door Catalinas. The Blue and Cream two-tone exterior paint looks exceptional, the chrome and brightwork is great to include the dual Silver “Speed-Streaks” down the hood and atop of the rear fenders! You’ll notice in one of the pictures the illuminated plastic Indian head works too! The two tone interior is finished in Blue vinyl and Gray fabric, complimented by Black painted metal on the dash and doors look to be in excellent condition as well.
Previous owner states the car was taken down to bare metal and painted approximately 10 years ago. Receipts indicate the motor was rebuilt and the transmission was overhauled by reputable local shops. Extensive brake work was completed in the past 2 years and the whitewall radial tires were recently purchased from Les Schwab.
This is a fine example of a very nice driver quality classic cruiser!
