Ive never even owned anything older than a 64..so...heres my 50 Pontiac...solid..ruff..but cheap..$400.00..had skirts, the brkts are still there, but MIA
There is something about the smell of those old cars and a kind of "time machine" vibe that just gets into your blood. Good buy. Keep us posted.
Looks like a suitable project, for anyone. Poncho's are so cool and different from the rest, even though many parts are interchangeable. Stay tuned in with us so we can enjoy your progress. Keep 'er nailed
I changed the ***le to mild Kustom...lol kustom is what im looking at..newer drivetrain, good brakes, nice interior, leave the out side as it is for a while..then satin black with wide whites, put the skirts back on it and some lake pipes probably..low rod... go easy..im a cherry...but what ever you guys do,or call it,is why Im here...i've never owned anything older than a 64..so this is all brand spankin' new to me... as long as it has the "look"...thats what i'm looking for...not a rat rod, but no fricken billet..at all..of any kind..no way..painted steel wheels...maybe clean the grill up, french the headlights...the car has the look...dont want to go too far from original..just glad i finally got the car i really wanted..im a die hard Pontiac guy I have a 63 389 with an Offy tripower and a 3 speed stick probably..maybe leave it on the tree..
Marxjunk I am happy to hear that you going for the mild custom. Truly the right thing to do to such a cool ride. Keep us posted on how this beauty turns out
Very cool. I am trying to buy one like this but the guy just can't let her go yet. Can't blame him but damn I want that car.
Looks like a good start. Its all there, surface rust but no bondo or anything.. cant really go wrong for the price! Makes me miss my old 50 chevy.
That is beautiful 1951Streamliner. ^^^^ I love the color... The project car is a nice find too, very cool.
1950 Pontiac fastback, what a great car, either way you go will look great, but leave the illuminating hood ornament on, especially if you're considering nosing, shaving, lowering, etc.. mild custom only pleeeeze!
