Convertible
Chassis #: F855H7331
This vehicle is a 1955 Pontiac Star Chief Convertible that is powered by a 287 cubic-inch V8 engine capable of producing 180 horsepower. It has a Hydra-Matic automatic gearbox and four-wheel drum brakes. The wheelbase is 124-inches providing adequate interior room for its occupants. This car was brought to the 2007 RM Auctions held at Meadow Brook where it was offered without reserve and estimated to sell between $60,000 - $80,000. It has been treated to a complete frame-off restoration that was completed just a short time ago. At auction the car was sold, selling below the estimated value, but still a fair price at $52,250.
