This 1950 Pontiac was on Craigslist and was advertised with all body work and a new paint job done.  When I looked at it it appeared to be a $10,000 paint job that came with a free car and all the stuff to put it back together including new upholstery door panels and headliner.  I then decided, since I had a 440 Dodge Engine and transmission sitting in my shop that I would put all Mopar running gear into it.  So, I have installed a power steering unit, built up the engine and transmission, got a Sure Grip rear end from a 1965 Chrysler car and I'm starting to install everything.

 There is some welding and fabrication that needs to be done along the way but I think I can make a real sleeper out of this old slug.
