You can call this 1938 Pontiac 5-Window Business Coupe a complete custom, a restomod, or just the ultimate cool build. With V8 power, an overdrive transmission, four-wheel disc brakes, an upgraded suspension, and a custom A/C interior, it's a cool two-tone classic that's built to be a true modern cruiser. The orange and root beer brown two-tone on the curvaceous sedan's body looks terrific. It brings out the details, and there's plenty of metallic element in there... to give it a glow out in the sunlight. There's less than 700 miles on the car since its restoration, so the panels are quite nice. When you combine the sleek clearcoat finish with a well-done sheetmetal, the result is something quite slick. This one does a good job of integrating the upgrades next to the classic details. For example, you might be too busy looking at Pontiac's famous silver streak on the hood to notice the modern spray nozzles for the windshield. Or how the classic taillights and split rear bumper lives amongst proximity sensors and a backup camera. It's all part of a package that tells you they were quite thoughtful when upgrading this pre-war classic. Inside is more of this attention to detail. You see it the moment you open the door, because the panels have a courtesy light and a custom Pontiac indian head logo. And the two-tone on the door is a preview of the custom two-tone ultraleather seating. It's especially nice up front where you have plush buckets with individual armrests and modern three-point seatbelts built-in. These are even electrically heated for comfort! The exterior two-tone returns on the dash, and it also shows even more modern conveniences. This includes cold-blowing R134a air conditioning, power locks, and an AM/FM/CD stereo that features an aux input and flip-up screen for the backup camera. You get a nice wood and chrome steering wheel on a tilt column, and beyond that is a full set of crisp Dolphin gauges. You'll love going to the car shows and seeing people's reaction when you leave it parked with the butterfly hood open. But more than just a cool hood, you're going to love the polished presentation under it. This borrows power from a younger and more famous GM sibling: the Chevy 350 small block. This V8 has been enhanced with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer air gap intake, and a great glasspack-style dual exhaust. It's also a thoughtful build with the right upgrades like an MSD distributor, Taylor Spiro-Pro 8mm plug wires, and an aluminum radiator w/electric fan. So if this is starting to sound like a great all-around driver, then you'll also appreciate the four-speed automatic transmission featuring overdrive and a B&M remote converter lock-up control. Add in a tubular A-arm front suspension upgrade, power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes, and you can this is a great driving classic. Freshly build and thoughtfully done, this is the distinctive Pontiac that leaves you wanting for nothing, call today!!!
