This Pontiac Star Chief has been in storage since ’64 and is in desperate need of a restoration. The Star Chief was considered to be the most prestigious cars in the Pontiac lineup and this convertible was as prestigious as they came. This Star Chief Convertible can be found on eBay with a current bid of $2,025.

This car was the seller’s first car and he got it in 1960. In ’64 he put it in a barn and then later he moved it into a wagon shed where it’s been parked ever since. He has always wanted to restore the car, but he sees now that it’s probably not going to happen, so he wants to see it go to someone who can restore it.

It’s sad to see such a regal looking car rot away, but this one maybe past the point of saving. We are hopeful though that someone with a love for the Star Chief will find this car and bring it back to its former glory. The car is mostly there, but is missing a few trim pieces.

The engine was swapped out at some point in time with this ’58 Bonneville’s 370 ci engine and transmission. The engine looks like it’s pretty rust and the seller didn’t say whether the engine turns or not. If it does turn, than it might be worth buying the car for the engine alone. The 370 was only offered in ’58 and there weren’t many 370s built.

This Star Chief could be a valuable and interesting car to own, but it’s going to take a lot of work to get it back on the road. We hope it’s not too far gone and that the right buyer sees this car and gives it another chance.
