1950 Pontiac Silver Streak Hot Rod - Olds Rocket V8
RamblinAround Store: teespring.com/...
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 🤟 the color of this beautyfull pontiac powerglide v8 sounds awsome what a wonderfull car 🤟 love it thank you jeff Hope it is not so hot and humid here it rains
That Olds engine is a deal breaker to an otherwise add a/c and fender skirts to round out a perfect cruiser package.
love those silver streaks! probably had a straight 8 inner originally

It definitely is bright. I think I'd rather have it in black, but the yellow definitely grabs some attention.
That bright yellow certainly makes it stand out :)

Thanks John, Hope you all have a Merry Christmas too!
Pretty car
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.
My Dad owned a yellow 50 era's Pontiac. He also owned a 57' Ford Fairlane.
Love the Yellow!
this car still for sale?
Nice car Jeff !

Nice car! What size is the Oldsmobile motor?
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.
Wow!

awesome car I like it😁😁😁😁a lot of it I would buy it but I'm in Foley Alabama
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.
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.

That was pretty bad. I believe they said a man had been living in the warehouse and his wood stove probably started the fire.
trans whine ?
That big chrome grill looks similar to a Packard in those years

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

This definitely would have stood out back in 1950, if it was in this color.
GTO was father of muscle cars,this is the grandpa and auburn the old grandpa
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.

Really nice Pontiac, shockingly unsubtle paint job. A nice burgundy or deep blue would be more suitable, but everyone likes something different.
Silver streak was not a v8 car it was a stright 8
These chromed up cars from the fifties are screaming, "WE WON THE WAR BITCH!"

I don't like those 'no touch' signs. I want to feel every part of that one!
