Pontiac Chieftain 1954

General description : This 1955 Pontiac Laurentian Convertible represents a rare piece of Canadian automotive excellence. The yellow and white two-tone paint combination flows across its classic lines with purpose. The sleek profile amplifies its distinct presence, while chrome bumpers and trim add definition to every angle. White canvas convertible top folds down smoothly, with a clear plastic rear window for maximum visibility. The body sits proudly on 14-inch wheels wrapped in G78-14 tires, with spotlights and mirrors adding extra flair to this Canadian-built cruiser.
The yellow and white vinyl interior carries the exterior's theme inside with impeccable style. Split-bench seating provides classic comfort, while the column-mounted shifter keeps the floor clean and uncluttered. A RetroSound radio with Bluetooth capability and auxiliary input delivers modern audio through kick panel speakers and dual 5x7s mounted behind the dash. Two 6x9 speakers in carpeted boxes fill the trunk with rich sound. A temperature gauge mounted under the dash provides vital information at a glance.
A Jasper 350 V8 crate engine powers this classic Canadian, paired with a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission for effortless cruising. The aluminum radiator keeps temperatures in check during summer drives. Dual exhaust with aftermarket mufflers produces a satisfying sound. The suspension system features coil springs with shocks up front and leaf springs in the rear, while drum brakes at all four corners provide stopping power. The factory rear end puts the power to the pavement effectively.
