Hi . . . I'm new to the site and a new Poniac owner. My last few cars have been a 48 Ford (350 Chev powered) with a 5 inch chop, 48 Plymouth with a 3 inch chop (350 Chev powered), and a 58 TBird, full restoration. When I came back from Florida in March I had a weak moment and bought a 51 Pontiac Chieftan Torpedo Back. I am not really sure why I bought it but . . . it's now running great, safetied and on the road. Where I will go from here I am not really sure but I am going to drive the car for the summer and have a blast.
Welcome from Saskatchewan and to the site, Jim! Nice ride you have there!

Welcome to the site Jimbo! Love that old car! We need a back end shot, just to get the full effect of the torpedo.
