Vehicle Description
1956 Pontiac Star Chief
One glance at this 1956 Pontiac Star Chief and you will instantly
understand the phrase "they just don't make 'em like they used to."
Living in a time where cars are thrown together in factories as
cheaply and quickly as possible you miss cars like this where the
styling of every little piece seemed just as important as the rest.
The steel bodies became canvases for unique colors and flashy trim
with little details designed for even the smallest areas of the
car. The classic Pontiac may not always get the press that the tri
five Chevys do but many would argue they have even more of a
luxurious appearance. This beautiful 56 has a stock style
appearance but has been completely frame off restored. Virtually
every single piece on the car was gone through and replaced or
rebuilt to look like new. The only customizations include molding
in the rear continental kit and chroming the rear fender skirts.
The body of the car is coated in a Red and White that has a great
shine. This paired with all of the highly polished out chrome and
trim work creates a very sleek looking exterior. Original style
wheels and hubcaps are found under all four corners and incorporate
wide white wall tires for the perfect "classic" look. 1956 Pontiac

Getting those wheels spinning is a 316 c.i. Strato streak V8 that
starts up smoothly and runs without issues. Opening the hood you
will be transported back to 56 because the engine was finished out
to look as it would from the factory. The block, heads and Pontiac
valve covers are painted in Green like it would be originally.
Paired with the engine is a Strato-Flight Hydramatic transmission
that shifts nice and smoothly.
The interior of the car is Red and White to match the exterior. The
upholstery work is all in great shape and the bench seats both have
plenty of padding. The dash of the car is topped with all of the
stock style gauges, knobs, switches, etc and all are working
properly. The trunk has been carpeted and finished out cleanly and
is where you will find the original jack still in place.
