Wanted to Buy - 56 Pontiac


I am still looking for a 56 Pontiac 4-dr hardtop (sport sedan).  Any condition and any drivetrain considered.

Good luck - I don't even think I have seen one of those!  Anyone have production numbers?

The 57' 4dr hardtop I have sitting in my garage now is the only one of those I have ever seen and they made about 2400 of them.

EDIT - there is a second 57' 4 dr hardtop in Halifax for sale.

Over the past year there were a couple of 56 Pontiac Laurentian 4 dr. hardtops listed in the classified section of OldAutos. There are still a few out there , good luck in your search and I'll keep an eye out for you in Eastern Canada.

Thanks, RacerRick

I had a beauty in High School in the 60s and have never gotten over that car. Even though I now have a nice 57 Belair sport coupe (Canadian). I have never seen another one on the West Coast since.

Over the last few years I have seen two or three two-door hardtops but the only four door hardtop was in England and that was just too much to deal with.

I do have the stats for Canadian GM production. I will dig it up and post it to this forum. The production for 1956 was very low as there was a strike in Canada for most of the year. The dealers here in Canada sold US models. Several years ago I had a chance to buy a 1956 GM Canada sales catalogue that featured only US models! I kick myself for not buying it at the time.
