1957 Pontiac Star Chief Additional Info:
1957 Pontiac Star Chief 4-Door Pillar-less Hardtop. Looks like shipped here from Cuba....Lots of patina with the original good running 347 Cubic Inch 270 HP engine. Automatic transmission works in Park, Neutral, First, and Reverse but probably needs filter and fluid flush to upshift. Install a 700R4 and be done with it.
Work done to date included: installed all new weatherstripping around doors, windows and trunk lid. All window regulators, latches, hinges and locks cleaned and lubed. Electrical checked with repairs to lights, switches, and wiring. Carburetor disassemble, cleaned and kit installed. Fuel pump disassembled, cleaned and re-assembled. New water pump, hoses & antifreeze installed.
Floors and trunk were surface rusty, cleaned and scrubbed and coated with Rustoleum Rusty Metal Primer then installed new Maroon carpet everywhere. New brake shoes, wheel cylinders, master cylinder installed but apparently still needs power bleed.
Work still needed: Gas tank needs to be flushed and cleaned. Runs on little gas tank by radiator presently. All factory tinted glass good except cracked windshield. Will include new windshield and back glass rubber weatherstrip to buyer plus several extra parts. Clear current title in my name with payment in full.
