The 1956 Pontiac Catalina Chieftain hardtop sedan showcases innovative mid-50s American automotive design. Its two-tone Phantom Grey and Camellia Pink paint job highlights the groundbreaking pillarless profile - a first for Pontiac sedans in '56. Polished chrome bumpers, trim, and the distinctive Indian head hood ornament enhance its flowing lines. This Catalina sits confidently on 15-inch steel wheels fitted with 215/75R15 Vitour Galaxy R1 tires. Inside, period-correct style abounds with black and white vinyl upholstery. Roomy bench seats provide comfortable seating for six. The dashboard features original gauges and AM radio, complemented by an underdash AC unit and Kleenex holder for added convenience. Large windows afforded by the hardtop design create an airy, open atmosphere for passengers whether driving with windows up or down. The 316 cubic inch V8 engine breathes through an Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission for relaxed cruising. The engine compartment retains a stock look, including the original generator and manual fan. Power steering offers easy handling, while drum brakes provide stopping power. A dual exhaust system gives this Catalina a subtle, authoritative sound.
