My old Pontiac Build


Ok I promised to upload these photos, and I finally got a chance to get onto my Dads computer. My old 1958 Pontiac Pathfinder more door.  Shaved the rear door handles and other emblems off. Custom yellow and pearl with a flat clear that oddly was close to her original color. Tuck and roll upholstry and bamboo door panels and floor mats. Air ride. Had a blast with the car driving it literally everywhere and lots of good stories to go with her. I made the decision to sell and was very happy I did in the end cause the car got what she needed with the new owner ie new floors and trunk and door jams all painted. Best part of it was that this gentleman met his wife driving a 58 poncho just like mine 25 years ago.

I knew I might get a question as too why I would do bamboo...hehe. It was a hawaiian tiki theme it had a pink lea and a tiki god as well and angel hair in the back tray. I seen some bamboo door panels in ol' skool rodz and liked the way it looked. The new owner put new door panels in that match the upholstry which i would have loved to do, but funding at the time limited me to getting my seats done. I had a friend that did there door panels in Mexican blankets for the same reason.
