1955 Pontiac Chieftain Catalina

By: Michael 03/13/2022

So this one is new to me from a friend who peeks into barns for a living. Runs and drives decently, needs a brake rebuild.


The 1978 Pontiac 400 engine is throaty and responsive. I just can't push it around until I have the brakes done.


I do feel tempted to lay in a SNIPER EFI that I have on the shelf for another project, wonder if that would make a difference.


Trying not to do a frame-off project here, and to hand it to someone else to further advance. But it's hard not to want to fix and upgrade every little thing.


I'll post as I can this month (Mar 2022) and hope to have it ready for someone in April.


Thanks,

Michael
