1956 Pontiac Catalina

Take a look at all of this Chrome and breath it in...
1956 was the peak year for Chrome accents and design.
It doesn't get much better than this folks.

Gord is a very fortunate man, to have Mary Jo and Penelope, Both of them are just as pretty coming at you as they are driving away.

The new for 1956 V8 was drastically enlarged to 316.6 cu in (5.2 L). Horsepower made a considerable increase, jumping to 192 and 205 respectively from 1955.


1956 model Chieftains received only minor interior updates from 1955. A padded safety dashboard was added as an option.

The hood ornament below is an excellent example of the "Jet" inspired styling of the mid 1950's. There is more style in this one ornament than all of the cars developed from 1990 to 2016.
