    I thought you might like a look at this very nice 1950 Pontiac Silver Streak. This 50's hot rod is powered by an Olds Rocket V8, backed by an automatic trans. It's not a show car, but it is a nice quality driver. The body is straight, the interior has been redone, and all the trim is in very good shape. A little painting and detailing under the hood and it would definitely be ready for some local shows. It's starts up and runs well and sounds good through that dual exhaust. I hope you find it interesting, thanks for taking a look!

    Love that lemon yellow color. It looks like a dream. Keep Mellow Yellow alive and well. Donavan said it's all right.

    That Olds engine is a deal breaker to an otherwise add a/c and fender skirts to round out a perfect cruiser package.

    The Silver Streaks are Cool!! That's alotta Yellow eh!!☺

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  Před 10 lety

      It definitely is bright. I think I'd rather have it in black, but the yellow definitely grabs some attention.

  • @Sysiphistication
    @Sysiphistication Před 7 lety

    Love it, even the color. I had not seen the wire loom brackets on the rockers before, a very nice touch. Too bad they couldn't have gotten a Pontiac motor. $13K even seems reasonable. I tend to appreciate rat rods a bit more since if I had one I'd want to drive it and not just show it.

    did they replace the original transmission when they installed the Olds engine? I don't remember if the Pontiac and Olds Hydramatic transmissions were identical.

  • @merlemorrison482
    @merlemorrison482 Před 6 lety +2

    so what size is the Olds engine?

  • @churchofnatasa
    @churchofnatasa Před 10 lety

    Nice car,the sharpest pontiac I have seen in awhile.RA what do you think about the multi alarm fire you guys had in downtown St louis,I just seen a video for it tonite.I can remember seing that building when I went through that city many years ago.

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  Před 10 lety

      That was pretty bad. I believe they said a man had been living in the warehouse and his wood stove probably started the fire.

  • @richards.collectibles

    That big chrome grill looks similar to a Packard in those years

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  Před 10 lety

      They were definitely using plenty of chrome back then. Thanks for checking it out!

    @FatGuyWithAKatana Před 10 lety

    i didn't know they had color back then, i figured everything was black and white unless you went to oz or something. (just realized it's probably a respray but my comment's still funny so there it is.)

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  Před 10 lety

      This definitely would have stood out back in 1950, if it was in this color.

    Really nice Pontiac, shockingly unsubtle paint job. A nice burgundy or deep blue would be more suitable, but everyone likes something different.

  • @canibusnj
    @canibusnj Před 10 lety

    Nice Pontiac Jeff. The color is a little far out but this is still a nice example.
    I don't know if you're taking request now but there's a nice red 65 Impala with a 383 Stroker, crane cam, Headman Headers, etc at Gateway. The rims are ultra ugly but I still believe it deserves a video.

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  Před 10 lety

      I haven't seen that one....it might be at one of the other locations. I'll take a look around next time I'm over there.

    • @canibusnj
      @canibusnj Před 10 lety

      RamblinAround AH DARN IT, it's at the Detroit location. :( There is a pretty nice blue 69 Impala convertible at the St. Louis location though.

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  Před 10 lety

      canibusnj Detroit is a pretty good drive for me :) I have seen the convertible, but I haven't filmed it yet.

    • @canibusnj
      @canibusnj Před 10 lety

      RamblinAround I know it is Jeff. I don't expect you to drive that far. lol Can you do a video of the blue Impala??

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  Před 10 lety

      canibusnj I'll see what it looks like the next time I'm over there.

  • @thomasbradley512
    @thomasbradley512 Před rokem +1

    That engine is an Oldsmobile engine and it did not come in Pontiacs from the factory. The correct engine should be a side valve straight 8 engine. Pontiac would not get a V8 until 1955. The transmission is correct.
