1956 PONTIAC STARCHIEF CUSTOM CATALINA
Beautiful car, but it would look a whole lot nicer with a PMD motor in it!

Stunning looking car.
Two things I'd change....remove the "on every second car" TT2's, and fit a radiator shroud. Then every time I'd drive it, I'd lament a little it didn't have a Pontiac in it, lol.

Except for the engine the car was done very nice and the price seems quite reasonable.

Couldn't own it w that Chevy in there but the car is really nice otherwise, imagine how sweet that would be with a twin turbo 535 pump gas Pontiac under the hood.

Why in the hell put all the effort and money in the car and then put a crap heart in it ? I'd rather see a 301 or even an Iron duke 4 cylinder in it over what it has now -

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
