Pontiac Other Straight 8 1933
General description :
Gateway Classic Cars of Louisville is proud to present this 1933 Pontiac Sedan. Pontiac was introduced in 1926 as the companion marque to GM’s Oakland division. Within months of its introduction Pontiac was outselling the Oakland division leading to their demise in 1932. 1933 would be a very successful year for Pontiac with their new extended line-up and the popular entry level inline 8 for under 600 dollars. This 33 is as original as I have seen. Purchased in 1933 by a doctor who left it to his son which was then placed in storage where it would sit until A man in South Carolina would buy it and massage it back to running order. With the car showing 13464 on the odometer and branded actual on the title this truly is a one of a kind find. With all the panels original to the car this is one of the best examples you will find. Repainted back to its original black the car looks amazing and shows extremely well. Naturally with the paint being so slick and smooth the chrome had to be sent off to be replated giving the car a finished and polished look. The white walls are exactly what you would expect from a car of this era and look right at home on this pre-war car. Look inside and the interior compliments the exterior perfectly. Although it has been redone it was restored using the original style fabric and looks as good as the rest of the car. The vent windows work and are fully functional making this a great car for a spring cruise. If you have ben looking for an original style pre-war car that is just a little different this Pontiac must be on the top of your list. Options on this 1933 Pontiac Sedan include, Cloth Interior, Bias Ply Tires, Wire Wheels and Wide White Walls.
