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.
This second-generation 1956 Pontiac Chieftain Catalina Coupe is a two-door coupe as you may glean from the pictures, and it wears a very period-correct and eye-catching white and turquoise color scheme, with lovely art deco chrome strips running down the hood. Look closer and you will notice the upgraded headlamps, retro-style 15-inch American Racing wheels and overall hunkered-down stance. All chrome and badges are in place too, including the mascot atop the radio antenna. Step aboard the interior that is spacious enough for five occupants and you will notice that many knobs and switches wear dice – another quirky little detail on this car. The original gauges are there, but the steering wheel has been upgraded to a sportier, three-spoke unit. A plaque informs that the body was built by Fisher, which was a common practice in those days. The carpets are reportedly new as well, and the center console hosts a pair of cupholders too. Two speakers live on the rear parcel shelf for your tunes.
The second-generation Chieftain came with V8s that displaced between 4.7 and 5.7L and put out up to 227hp. However, this 1956 Pontiac Chieftain Catalina Coupe seems to pack an upgrade in the shape of an Offenhauser V8 engine with Tri-Power triple carburetor set-up feeding it air and fuel. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via an automatic transmission. The seller reports that the master cylinder has been rebuilt, and that there are new radiator hoses, gaskets and a replaced fuel line.
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.

There is no doubt that Pontiac's 1960s-era cars would not have been as exciting as they were without the vision, insights, and pure determination that GM's automobile engineer and executive John DeLorean had. He and his creative team of automotive designers and engineers transformed ordinary cars into intriguing vehicles. The 1969-1970 Pontiac Grand Prix was a great example of this. The Grand Prix was first offered for the 1962 model year. Pontiac created this sporty personal luxury two-door car to compete with Ford's Thunderbird. The Grand Prix from 1969 to 1970 was available in two models, Model J being the base model. What we have here is a 1970 Pontiac Grand Prix Model J with 38,500 original miles on its clock. It has all servicing up to date and you get three keys and the original owner's manual with the sale of this car.
The Pontiac Catalina was Pontiac’s full-size offering between 1950 and 1981. The Catalina was initially a trim offering on the automaker’s Chieftain, before becoming its own nameplate. Pontiac made the Catalina with many body styles, including a sedan, station wagon, convertible and coupe. This 1963 Pontiac Catalina Sport Coupe is probably the sportiest offering of the line-up, and it looks fantastic, having just 38,300 miles on the clock. The current owner reports that the car was recently appraised in June 2024 as well.
The 1969 Pontiac Firebird Convertible, introduced in 1967 and designed as a pony car to compete with the legendary Ford Mustang, General Motors made one of the best muscle cars to have ever been built. This first generation Firebird had characteristic Coke bottle styling shared with its cousin, the Chevrolet Camaro. Only a total of 11,649 two-door convertibles were reported to have been made, making this particular one we have today a rare piece. It is equipped with a 428 ci V8 engine from a 1968 model, clocking a total of 777 miles on the odometer. This Pontiac Firebird is also the model that received a major facelift with a new front-end design without the Endura bumper, just for the year 1969 before being succeeded by the second generation in 1970. For sale in Boca Raton, Florida, here is your chance to own a hot Pontiac Firebird.
