This is my brothers 1956 Pontiac Custom Star Chief 2dr Hardtop .He is the third owner of this very original Pontiac the milage is indeed 43,278. This car was purchased new  in a small town in Western Pennsylvania. 4 years later the husband passed away, the wife attempted to drive this rather large vehicle and on one of her early attempts hit the mailbox comming into the driveway denting the hood. She put the car in the garage where it sat for the next 35 years. The second owner purchased the car at her estate sale 1996. He had the gas tank cleaned and sealed flushed the cooling system, changed the oil and filter, added a new fuel pump and a tune up, new battery and fresh gas hit the key and she fired right up. Next he replaced the hood had the body refinished to original colors and the seats and door panels recovered. He enjoyed the car for the next 8 years. Advancing age and failing health prompted him to put this car up for sale. My brother purchased it in 2004 and has enjoyed it since. He took the car with him to Indianapolis Indiana where he resides. In the years he has owned it it performed flawlessly with only routine maintenance needed. This car can be driven anywhere without concern, it runs that good. the motor is amazingly quiet the trans shifts as new, and the ride is outstanding. The tires are the only things showing their age, good tread but starting to dryrot. My brother had a health issue last year the results are keeping him from enjoying the car, so it is time for a new steward to enjoy this car. Please enjoy the Pics I have posted. Call me( I am handling this for my brother) or ask questions via the auction. Remember this is not a show car! It is a car that can can be enjoyed being driven and shown with confidence. Again the car is located in Indiananpolis Indiana. Payment is as follows $500.00 at close of sale, Cashiers check or pay-pal. Balance within 10 days Cashiers check or Pay-pal. There is a clear Indiana title, pickup or shipping is new owners arrangement. My cell # is 412-445-3858 ask for Ed

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
