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.
Exterior and Interior
Wearing a very fetching coat of custom red metal flake paint, the first thing you’ll notice about this 1956 Pontiac Chieftain Station Wagon is its sheer size. Yup, it’s over 205 inches long and certainly cuts an imposing figure, rolling on its aftermarket mag wheels in bright silver. Look closer and you’ll see a lack of immediately visible door handles. That’s another neat feature of this car, because the handles are on poppers. Now it’s time to step aboard and be greeted by a custom beige interior with a special red metal flake dashboard. The interior is truly amazing to behold, as it’s the perfect mix of retro and modern. You’ve got the classic-styled speedometer and upper dashboard seamlessly mixing with an aftermarket air conditioning unit, a newer radio unit, and upgraded speakers. Meanwhile, there’s a plush rear seat and a large luggage area behind, making this an excellent long-distance road trip car.
Engine
Under the hood of this 1956 Pontiac Chieftain Station Wagon lurks a 350ci V8 that’s been bored out to 383ci and has done less than 5,000 miles since then. It is paired with a smooth three-speed automatic gearbox and drives the rear wheels. The car also features power steering and front plus rear disc brakes for better stopping power. With all that, you can definitely keep up with modern metal on the freeway and even surprise some of them as you roar away in a V8 symphony.
