Up for sale is this beautiful 1955 Pontiac Star Chief convertible ‘Resto Mod’ which won the “staff pick” at the 2019 Good Guys York, PA. Power comes from a 2006 Pontiac GTO 6.0L V-8 LS2 and it’s backed by the matching 4L65e 4-speed automatic transmission.
NO TRADES
The frame-off restoration started with a rust-free 77,000 mile running ‘donor’ car out of Canada. All the body panels except for the floor sections in the back seat area are original. There are no patch panels or Bondo in the car. The build was completed in 2016 and has only been driven 5000 miles to shows in the MD, PA, DE areas.
Every nut, bolt, screw, and piece of weather stripping was replaced or replated. Nothing was left untouched. The owner’s intention was to build a reliable ‘show’ cruiser that could be driven anywhere.
Everything functions normally including the Halogen headlights, Southern Air A/C, heat, & defrost, to the lighted Eagle hood ornament.
Additionally, and included with the sale, is a complete factory continental kit and a set of fender skirts. Neither has been repainted.
Selling to complete another project.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 19 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 10 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles on the internet without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
