Description
Vehicle Description 1957 Pontiac safari 2-door station wagon $26,995 $26,995 Cruisin Classics is pleased to present this 1957 Pontiac Chieftain Safari 2-Door Station Wagon. This is one of those cars you simply don't see every day. Pontiac produced only 2,934 of these unique two-door wagons for the 1957 model year, and according to the cowl tag, this particular car is number 2,910, making it one of the last 25 to roll off the assembly line! The wagon has developed plenty of age and patina over the years, and rather than trying to hide it, the front hood and fenders have been finished to match the rest of the body, creating one seriously cool rat rod with tons of character. The red exterior stripe running along the body adds even more personality. It rides on red-painted steel wheels with chrome Pontiac hubcaps, wrapped in newer BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. The original-style chrome still shines, although much of it has a naturally aged and hazy appearance. Side-exit exhaust in front of the rear tires completes the look. Under the hood is a 1970 Pontiac 400ci V8 backed by a Turbo 400 automatic transmission, giving this lightweight two-door wagon plenty of Pontiac power. The car is equipped with power steering and has received a number of recent mechanical upgrades, including newer shocks, a front sway bar and end links, a newer exhaust system, new brakes and wheel cylinders, and a new gas tank. The wagon retains its original-style simplicity with no A/C, and the heater blower is currently inoperative. The rear hatch operates as it should, while the window glass is all present but shows its age. Inside, some money has been spent bringing the cabin back to life while still keeping the car's old-school personality. It features new door panels, freshly upholstered seats, and a completely redone headliner that looks great. The dash presents well overall, and the car has a nice vinyl floor. There is no radio, keeping things simple and fitting with the car's custom rat-rod character. This is a seriously unique piece of 1950s Pontiac history - a rare two-door Safari wagon with an especially interesting production number, big-block Pontiac power, plenty of patina, and the kind of attitude that makes it stand out anywhere it goes.
