Most car aficionados thoroughly appreciate the curb appeal of vintage automobiles but are often less than enthusiastic about the driving experience they offer. Antiquated technology can equate to trying times behind the wheel, making even a short cruise a fairly strenuous affair, and yet those flowing lines and ornate contours can be pretty darned alluring. This 1939 Pontiac Deluxe Restomod combines the best of yesteryear and more modern times. Featuring a strong, capable drivetrain that's anchored by a Vortech 350 cubic inch V8 enhanced by a trio of Super 7 carbs, along with a 4-speed 700r4 automatic transmission whose overdrive gear brings the RPMs way down at highway speeds, this is a car that's not only built for frequent use but is fully up to the challenge of daily driving. Modern power steering makes this substantial vehicle easy to navigate, power brakes that include discs up front bring dependable stops and tubular front control arms create ride quality and handling that would be thoroughly beyond the ability of the original components. Rest assured that this drivability doesn't come at the expense of aesthetics. When this Pontiac was transformed into its current stellar state, quite a bit of care went into ensuring a pleasingly authentic appearance - those twin grilles you see up front are original and have been meticulously re-chromed, and the running boards on both sides were custom fabricated to mirror the contours of the originals.
