1950 pontiac chieftain - jacksonville, flfor sale by ownerjacksonville, fl 32209ph: 9044259541web: www. Georgesapproval. Netoptions:description:because of its historical status as a starring picture vehicle, i decided not to restore it. Hence, the condition that it’s in is almost exactly as it was in the movie. Obviously i had to have some mechanical work done, but just enough to keep it running smoothly and safe (list of repairs and modifications below). Mechanically it runs very well, just needing the occasional tune-up. Electrically, all the important lights work (headlights, turn signals, brakes, etc). Things like that (again, i wanted to preserve the “stock” nature of this star car). • vin: - p8th119299 • style no.: 50 2567 dx • body no.: l18731 • engine: straight eight • trim: convertible • paint: 5007 • shipping weight: 3704 • engine: eight cylinder: l-head. Displacement: 268. 2 cid. Bore and stroke: 3-3/8 x 3 3/4" inches. Compression ratio: (standard); 6. 5:1 (optional) 7. 5:1. Brake hp: (standard) 108 at 3600 rpm (optional) 113 at 3600 rpm. Solid valve lifters. Carburetor: carter wcd-719-s two barrel. • chassis features: wheelbase: 120 inches all lines. Overall length (all cars) 202- ½ inches. Front tread: 58 inches. Rear tread: 59 inches. Tires: (standard) 7. 10 x 15 (special equipment) 7. 60 x 15. Here are the disclaimers and the “issues”: a main issue is probably the convertible top. In addition, the window needs a new zipper. As well, the tonneau (?) cover needs to be replaced. Here are the other main issues: the radio and clock do not work (i’ll include a replacement radio i bought, but never installed. Think i have a spare clock too). The antenna has broken off. The sun visors need replacing. The hood lock is missing (the hood stays tightly closed though, due to its weight). While most of the gauges work, the odometer has been stuck since i acquired the vehicle, and it was sold as “tmu” (true mileage unknown). The heating system in the dash doesn’t work, but there are manual controls that produce heat from under the seat. Possibly the biggest issue is that the doors don’t close all the way. They latch shut, but just don’t close all the way (see photos).
