Penelope the Pontiac





Our 1951 Pontiac Chieftain. We acquired her late 2008 from a car collector in Morgan Hill.

She is stock for now, but over the winter we plan on doing a 12v conversion (currently 6v), flipping the front & rear bumpers & removing the over riders and bumper extensions to smooth the front & rear ends out. Lowering a few inches all round & replacing all the rubber components in the front suspension that have perished over the last 58 years & hopefully metalflaking the roof.
