This is my 1958 Pontiac Chieftain Catalina Coupe. Originally this was my Dad’s car (My father gave me the car after having health issues and could no longer drive) and I am finishing up some minor restoration. This ol’ gal is powered by a Tri-power 370 cubic inch engine and is 90% complete with only 54K original miles. What a joy to drive.

Really looks nice. Remember riding in one of these when I was a kid. Awesome boat!
Beautiful ride Danny. What exactly was the tri-power? Thx
Tri-power is three two barrel carbs.
What a sweet and rare ride
Very nice. My uncle had a 58 Star Chief 4 door hardtop. Two tone green.
My first car,bought used, was a ’58 Chieftain, ordered from the factory sans chrome. When I bought it,64 GTO 389 Tri-power, 4-speed had been installed. Sleeper? YUP!
Mid fifties to mid sixties were the best lookers.
My Dad had the Canadian version when I was growing up , great car !!
MY DAD BOUGHT A NEW ’58 CHIEFTAN 9-PASSENGER WAGON.IT REPLACED A ’57 WAGON.QUITE AN IMPROVEMENT FOR ONE YEAR.
My dad has a 1958 Super Chief.
I am looking for a 1958 Pontiac Super Chief 4 Door Sedan. Do you know if he wants to sell or knows about one which is for sale. Please let me know. Thanks
Gorgeous and rare Pontiac. 50’s GM Vehicles were real works of art.
Great Car!
Wow. It’s a beauty. Always loved the ’58 Pontiac.
My biggest regret in life was in 1968 giving my 58 Bonny convert with rare fuel injection to my kid sister when I went to Vietnam. i thought I would get it back when I got home, but she got married and her husband talked her into trading it for a new Mercury. I almost cry when I see one like yours.
Wow! That is sharp.
