Jim Bollman Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 A fellow out of the blue sent me these pictures today and asked if I could ID the car. He found it while trail running (??). I initially had no idea then he sent me another note and said it had a straight 8 which gave me an idea but I thought the experts might like a try at it.

Dave@Moon Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Actually witht he dipped center to the grille it could either be a '51 or a '52 Pontiac. The bar across the top of the grille could've told one from the other, but it is missing here. It appears that there used to be a double line of stainless trim on the door (leading back from the front fender trim), which could only have come from a '52.

Jim Bollman Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 I knew you guys wouldn't let me down. I didn't have a clue till he said straight 8 then the hood looked like a Pontiac to me but had know idea what year or if I was even on the right track.Thanks, I'll pass it back to him.

Jim Bollman Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 I told the fellow what it was and he thanks you for solving the mystery. Says its sitting next to an Olds Rocket 88 that isn't as nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
