Background Story of this 1956 Pontiac Star Chief

Overview of 1956 Pontiac Star Chief For Sale by Owner

Pontiac is no more. In 2010, GM shuttered this iconic American brand that was renowned for its “We Build Excitement” tagline. This wasn’t some newfangled brand either, Pontiac’s roots can be traced back to 1926. While models like the GTO, Firebird Trans Am and Fiero steal all the limelight today, here’s a somewhat lesser-known name. Produced between 1954 and 1966, the Star Chief represented the top tier trim of Pontiac’s Chieftain series of full-size cars. Buyers were offered choices of sedan, convertible, coupe, hardtop and station wagon, depending on generation. Today, we have a second-generation 1956 Pontiac Star Chief Convertible for sale from Madera, California. With a mere 60,071 miles to its name, this two-tone Star Chief represents a fine American classic car that will of course appreciate in value as well. Snap it up, soon!

Exterior and Interior

Dressed in Canary Yellow and Sun Beige, this 1956 Pontiac Star Chief Convertible portrays the sunny outlook of promise that was evident in the colors of Fifties cars. World War II was in the rear-view mirror, and things were looking up. The car also packs the Heavy Chrome Trim package, as well as chrome wire-spoke wheels. And of course, wide whitewall tires are included too, because what is a Fifties car without whitewalls? Meanwhile, since this car is a convertible, it’s got a white soft top that’s power operated because Pontiac was aimed at giving buyers some luxuries too! Plus, a dual exhaust system ensures that the car’s V8 makes all the right noises as you cruise along. The interior of this 1956 Pontiac Star Chief Convertible comes in black and white vinyl, and features the AM “Deluxe” push-button radio. There’s also a heater and defroster unit, as well as a chrome steering wheel horn ring. Moreover, the front and rear seats comprise broad benches for added convenience and comfort.

Engine

This 1956 Pontiac Star Chief Convertible packs a 316ci Strato-Streak V8, which was Pontiac’s first in-house V8, taking over from their straight eight line-up. With a 4-barrel carburetor, the engine was rated at around 216hp and 315lb-ft. Power goes to the rear wheels via 4-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission.

1957 Pontiac Star Chief Safari Wagon Restomod

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$84,999
SOLD

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!

1955 Pontiac Star Chief

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$33,000
SOLD

Pontiac, one of those great American brands that is no more, is something of a legend. Between 1926 and 2010, they’ve given us plenty of great nameplates, some truly awesome muscle cars, potent pony cars and flamboyant full-size sedans. One of their key offerings in that last segment between 1954 and 1966 was the Star Chief. This was initially a top trim package for the Chieftain model before becoming a separate model. Finding a Star Chief isn’t easy because these vehicles were never intended to be collectibles. That’s despite over 203,000 being made in 1955, the year from which this 1955 Pontiac Star Chief hails. So if you wish to own this vehicle, you’d better act fast as it’s in great condition. It’s currently domiciled in Lake Elsinore, California, if you’re interested to go check it out.

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE

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.

1946 Pontiac Streamliner

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$17,999

Aptly named, just look at this fine maroon 1946 Pontiac Streamliner Sedan from Manorville, New York! It’s not hard to see why Pontiac named it the Streamliner, especially with those swooping, aero-inspired rear design aspects. Introduced in 1942, the Streamliner was aimed at offering dependable motoring in the full-size segment, for the emerging middle class. Pontiac were getting ready for the end of World War II and the resultant economic uptick, and they jumped on the bandwagon quite early. Hence, the car sold quite well, but few survived as you’d expect from something that’s eighty years old. This 108,000-mile example is thus a great vintage car to add to your collection, or start a collection with. It’s got a tan interior, a 239ci straight six and a 3-speed manual box to get things moving.

1963 Cadillac DeVille Coupe

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,999

The 1963 Cadillac Coupe DeVille stands as a defining symbol of American luxury during the early 1960s, an era where size, presence, and comfort reigned supreme. With its long, flowing body lines and unmistakable Cadillac styling, this coupe delivers the kind of road presence that modern vehicles simply cannot replicate. This particular example, showing under 16,000 miles, has been thoughtfully updated to blend classic charm with modern usability. Enhancements such as upgraded air conditioning, audio, and electrical systems make it far more enjoyable to drive today, while still preserving the essence of what made Cadillac the pinnacle of luxury in its time.

1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Restomod

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$112,000

One of Chevy’s main pillars of the Sixties and Seventies, the Chevelle dominated the midsize segment with ease. It was one of the Bowtie’s most successful models during its 1963 to 1977 production run, and came in many body forms. Of course, petrolheads flocked towards the SS or Super Sport variant which brought many cosmetic as well as performance upgrades to the car. Now, we’ve got a finely restored 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle SS for grabs in Visalia, California. Sporting a black exterior and a black interior, this machine rocks a fearsome 427ci V8 under the hood, a set of black Ridler alloy wheels, and more. Also included in the sale is a Vintage Air heating and air conditioning system that’s currently not installed.
