Up for sale we have a gorgeous 1957 Pontiac Safari Wagon. There was
less than 1300 of these cars ever made. The one we
have for you has undergone a Nine Year Frame off Rotisserie
Restoration. It was completed in 2013 and we have pictures of the
car before and during the resto. In the paragraphs to follow we
will give a brief description of the exterior, interior, and
driveline of the Pontiac, but first we would like to tell you a
little about us.
Smoky Mountain Traders is a classic car dealer in east Tennessee.
We are family owned, operated, and own our entire inventory, no
consignments, and only deal in muscle cars and vintage auto. You
can count on us to have 70 to 80 cars at all times. We don't have a
big show room that our customers would otherwise pay for. So,
that's how we can sell for less than other dealers. To contact us
for more information, pictures, or any questions call our office at
(865)988-8088 or visit our SmokyMountainTraders website.
We will start off with the exterior of the Safari Wagon. From first
glance, it's obvious how meticulously this car was restored. The
result is arguably the Best one on the market today! To build a car
of this quality it's best to start with a car that's rock solid and
that's exactly what they did. All the panels have a near perfect
fit, and the gaps around the doors and hood are phenomenal.
Everything is covered in the two tone Tartan Red and Kenya Ivory
Paint Scheme. No matter what angle you look at this paint from it's
impressive. It has been buffed and polished to a mirror finish that
really shows off how laser straight the body is. All 403 pieces of
Chrome and stainless was taken off and professional polished, and
the chrome was triple plated. To finish off the exterior it's
sitting on the 14" Pontiac Steel Wheels with the correct Hub Caps
and Michelin White Wall Radials, and no worries about parking as
the passenger side electric curb finders will keep you on the right
path!
Next, we will look at the interior of the Wagon. As you open the
door you will see that the inside is also done in the two-tone Red
and Ivory Color Combo. The cost to get the interior of this car to
this level is one we're glad we didn't have to incur. The custom
Leather Interior is gorgeous. Looking at the door panels you will
see they have been custom done with the speakers hidden behind
them. Another nice touch is the front bench seat being Power. As
you sit down and adjust it to your preference look around and you
are going to be floored by how nice all the interior stainless is.
Now look at the dash and you will see the classic instrumentation
with all the gauges working properly. The vintage AC works off the
factory controls, and the radio has been upgraded along with custom
sound system. Before we move on notice the front windows are Power
and all the glass is in excellent condition with the side slide
glass opening and closing as it should.
Finally, we will look at the driveline of the Pontiac. This
timeless classic has all the eyes you could imagine, but what about
under the hood? Well no worries it's been upgraded to the 455
Pontiac Engine that's set up with the Holly EZ Electronic Fuel
Injection. The engine is mated to the Turbo 400 Trans and the Era
Correct Rear End. Driving this Safari wagon is an absolute pleasure
as it comes with Vintage AC, Power Steering, and Power Brakes with
four-wheel Disc. Not only are all the gauges working, but all the
lights from the Fender Lighted Spears to the reverse lights work as
well. When you look under this '57 you will be thoroughly
impressed! When they pulled this car off the frame it was highly
detailed and all new bushings were installed. The frame itself and
the floors are all rock solid! Under the front, it has had the ball
joints, bushings, and tie rod end replaced. For exhaust, it has the
factory Style Manifolds with 2 �" Pipes that go thru the Ultra Flo
Mufflers and out the rear Bumper.
