Hello folks, i´m glad to find this site on the web. Hopefully it´s a good source for me. My car is a ´58 Pontiac Pathfinder. six-cylinder, 3-speed standard trans. Hard to get spec´s and parts for it.

ooooppsss, sorry for the pic size.
the green 58 is a lot better than mine. anyhow, i´m lucky with my car.
And sorry for my english, i forget to mention : i´m from germany but my car is sitting in a barn in nova scotia. i drive it every time when i´m overthere. Which is approx. 3 times a year. So she will not get too many km.

well, she is not in greatest shape, but i enjoy every minute driving with her. the rockerpanels should be replaced , but the paintjob is very expensive. drivetrain , frame , engine all is A1, interior is redone 15 years ago and still looks nice. the trim could be re-chromed, i will do it one day . it´s somewhat like a rolling restoration.
thanks for the compliments

Our cars might not be as perfect as we want them to be but it still puts a smile on my face knowing it's in my garage And you really do have a great looking car there!
