Cheap running project-‘54 Chieftain
Not mine. My son is stationed at Cherry Point NC Marine base and saw this listed locally. I assume it’s a local thing or Facebook?
Anyway I guess it runs and drives. Too cheap not to look into, but he’s moving in a few weeks and has a 9 month old, so not practical for him. Guy is asking $4600. Fresh engine rebuild, looks like a complete car. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...5709819830917/ |
Not that cheap for a more-door in that condition.

It's a great deal for someone into those cars.

It would cost $7000+ to get the engine rebuilt

I read recently, but can't remember where, that Pontiac originally intended to launch their v8 in '54 thus the '54 cars are ready to accept the v8 engine. Just saying.

I couldn't yank the cool strait 8 for a run-o-the mill v8(don't get me wrong I here for the V8s but...). Just curious how slow would it be say compared to a 326 2bb 2 speed?

Zero to 60 in almost 20 seconds!

suprise ya, and even shame some. LOL GT |
The ad says the motor has been rebuilt, it has a new clutch and rebuilt brakes, and the car runs and drives, so the mechanicals hopefully aren't an issue.
