******1950 PONTIAC SILVER STREAK******

BEFORE
AFTER

This is my daily driver. I found this car behind my father in-laws shop in Humbolt Az. It was originaly from Sedona Az. Knowing it would be my driver I wanted to upgrade a few things so I could find parts for it in case it broke. I put a 430cu. big block with a turbo 400 tranny.Went with a buick eng. because it was free! Next I put in power steering and power brakes. These were all added to the existing frame. I wont do that again! From now on its sub-frame front and new rear end. The metal work,bodywork,paint and interior was all done in my back yard. It is a done-by-me car,and im proud of it being my first restoration.I learned a lot and messed a lot up but just kept going on it .Its almost done, with only the inside needing to be finished.(Dont start driving a car until its done!) I will get it done someday. Right now the 55 Dodge is the next car that I am trying to get going for the daughter.
