Post-War Pontiac designs were quite something to behold, and the Chieftain was their full-sized car from 1949 to 1958 that embodied everything about American motoring, right down to sheer size and road prominence. If you’re a fan of Fifties cars with those imposing, bulbous body styles, may we present this worthy 1954 Pontiac Chieftain Sedan for your considering. Having done just 62,176 miles, it’s in great condition inside and out, and awaits its next owner.
Stretching 203 inches long for 1954, this 1954 Pontiac Chieftain Sedan presents all those bulbous curves and lushly chromed elements in a silver paint job. This design is the work of the legendary Harley Earl, the man who pioneered tailfins, wrap-around windscreens, and the use of clay modelling in the automotive industry. Everything on this car is in pristine order, right down to the badges, rear wheel spats, and white roof. Even the tires are period-correct whitewall units. Likewise, the gray interior on this 1954 Pontiac Chieftain Sedan is in great order, with the front and rear bench seats harking back to a simpler era where it was not uncommon to find three adults up front, and four or five in the rear. The dash showcases the period art deco style, with chrome trims, a push-button radio, central clock, and ventilation system controls. The thin-rimmed steering wheel is a delight to hold, and the gear shifter is mounted to the steering column. Wind up windows and ash trays complete the interior amenities, as were typical of the time. The trunk contains the spare wheel, and the trunk liner is probably one of a handful of parts that show the age of this car.
V8s were the powerplant of choice in the Fifties, although the Chieftain also offered an in-line six for the less adventurous, as well as an in-line eight between 1949 and 1951. 1952 to 1954 saw the 268ci (4.4L) I8 lurk beneath the hood, as it does on this 1954 Pontiac Chieftain Sedan, and it produced 127hp when new. This car sports a Hydramatic automatic transmission to send power to the rear wheels, and drum brakes take care of stopping duties.
Pontiac’s Chieftain is a model that ran between 1949 and 1958. It was Pontiac’s full-size car and the first post-war design to be produced by this famed American automaker. Sadly, since Pontiac is no more, classics like this 1956 Pontiac Chieftain Station Wagon are all the more desirable. This particular car will have no doubt been the regular conveyance of a family in its heyday, its spacious passenger cabin and accommodating trunk filled to capacity on multiple occasions. Now, the vehicle enjoys a second life as something of a restomod and awaits a new owner who will take it on new adventures.

Pontiac’s Chieftain line-up was the automaker’s full-size offering from 1949 to 1958 across three generations, and were their first post-war designs. These full-sized cars were offered in a dizzying array of body styles, including two and four door sedans, two door coupes, two door hardtops, convertibles and station wagons. There was a Catalina for everyone. Powered by stout V8 engines making moderate but reliable power, this was dependable American motoring at its best. However, this 1956 Pontiac Chieftain Catalina Coupe is a bit of a deviation from the norm as it’s got some tasteful upgrades and enhancements. With 78,000 miles, it’s got a lot of life left in it too.
If you want a Sixties GTO but can’t quite stretch to the prices that pristine examples fetch, this black 1967 Pontiac LeMans Convertible GTO Tribute is a viable contender to consider. It’s available in Greenacres, Florida, with a 400ci V8 under the hood and a TH400 3-speed autobox for ease of driving. With less than 23,000 miles on the clock, this baby also rocks an aftermarket exhaust, the famous His & Hers shifter, and some aftermarket upgrades too. It’s a cool car to cruise around in, but bury the throttle pedal and it can really take off, with the accompanying V8 rumble making everyone within earshot tingle in excitement.
Pontiac’s Star Chief was a full-size offering available between 1947 and 1966, across six generations. It represented the top trim level for the Chieftain model, and as such, sat at the upper echelons of Pontiac’s hierarchy. Today’s 1957 Pontiac Star Chief Custom Safary 2-Door Wagon Restomod is a bit different, though. It’s a restomod with some neat upgrades and makes for a fine classic daily driver. With over 120,000 miles on the clock, this car has been around quite a bit, but it’s not tired at all. Rather, this Riverside-based Pontiac is ready for even more action if you please. It’s got a 347ci V8 with FiTech Go Tri-Power electronic fuel injection, an aftermarket audio system and even air conditioning!
Now here’s a custom third-generation Trans Am that isn’t modeled after the most famous of them all; KITT. If you want a third-gen F-body pony car from Pontiac with some limited-edition chops, this 1986 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Tojan by Knudsen is your car. It’s one of just a hundred and fifty examples made by Knudsen Automotive, and comes with Tojan brochures plus original dealer paperwork to back up its authenticity status. With just under 64,000 miles on the clock, this rather interesting car is up for grabs in Cincinnati, Ohio, and we’d suggest that you act fast because being just 1 of 150 means its rarer than many supercars!
