Oxford Diecast 87PC54001 HO Scale 1954-1965 Pontiac Chieftain Sedan Two-Tone Blue

It was not until 1949 that Pontiac (General Motors) recovered sufficiently after World War II to introduce new automobiles. The Pontiac Chieftain, a 4 door sedan was one of these. Manufactured until 1958 in Michigan and various other assembly plants across the USA, we have chosen to model the 1954 version of the Chieftain which falls into the first generation of the marque and was very similar in size, components and engine size to its slightly larger sister the Pontiac Streamline. It came with four model variants too – sedan, sedan coupé, business coupé and de luxe convertible coupé. There were also different engine sizes as well as a choice of 3 speed manual or 4 speed automatic transmission.

Our 1:87 scale version comes as the four-door sedan from 1954 and looks most attractive in its pale and dark blue colour scheme with a pale brown interior. The wealth of silver trim includes an unusual five-band silver row that extends from the front to the back of the bonnet. Additional features comprise silver bumpers, badging and windscreen wipers. Our Chieftain is registered 510- 719 in Jefferson, Kentucky in 1954.

1954 was an innovative year for the Pontiac Chieftain when it was upgraded to a level of contemporary opulence. It now featured air conditioning with in-dash control (an optional extra), an adjustable front seat, ‘power lift’ front windows, the windscreen was now one piece and the slightly longer body now featured sleeker lines. A final addition was the introduction of power brakes. Despite all that, the car still lacked a really powerful engine in 1954, which would be remedied with the next generation of the marque.
