1937 Pontiac 5-Window

Description

It's hard not to get excited about this 1937 Pontiac 5-windows coupe. After all, with the custom paint, A/C interior, small block power, and the unique attraction of bringing a unique pre-war Pontiac to the car show, this is a lot of custom classic at a very obtainable price.

The appeal of this one goes well beyond the uniqueness of owing a custom Pontiac. After all, the bright paintwork is the result of careful thought and plenty of investment. From far away it just looks like an interesting combination of a metallic purple and coral two-tone. As you come closer, you start to see that the purple is used as an accent feature on the front fenders. And have you seen how a teal pinstripe is used as a dividing line for the two-tone? Keep that in mind for later. For now, just appreciate the level of quality on this all-steel body. Its exceptional straightness allows you to enjoy all of the Pontiac's streamlined elements – everything from the Indian Chief hood, to the headlight pods, to the long flowing trunk. And while the traditionally chromed pieces have been painted over to give this vintage custom a modern appearance, it still doesn't miss out on good 'ol American brightwork. The shine is now just reserved for the more aggressive elements like the 15-inch Weld wheels and the dual exhaust tips.

Remember how we told you to remember the teal pinstripe? Well, when you open the door, you'll know exactly why it's there. The bright color of the tweed cloth interior makes this Pontiac feel both very comfy and custom. The same two-tone treatment on the exterior continues on the dash, which reminds you how much this is a thoughtful build (and did you spot the scale model on the rear parcel shelf?!) But more than just look cool, the Pontiac is built for long-haul comfort. You get a Lecarra steering wheel, and beyond that is a full set of gauges set in a wood panel. Plus, you get great features like the AM/FM/CD stereo discreetly mounted in the glovebox, power seats, and modern R134a air conditioning to keep you cool when going to car shows near and far.

Under the hood is one of the best upgrades of all. A small block Chevy is exactly what we love to see for both power and reliability. And because they are so adaptable, this coral-colored 350 cubic-inch V8 has nice upgrades that include an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Weiand intake, and shorty headers. That last one not only adds power, but also helps give the dual exhaust the kind of rumble you expect this custom to have. But more than just nice performance, you're looking at a classic that was built to drive. With the upgraded independent front suspension, three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes, this is an easy cruising total package.

You're looking at a distinct custom classic with all the right features, including A/C. Who knew that something this exceptional could also be so affordable? That's why we know it won't be with us long. Call today!!!
