1961 Pontiac Safari 389

I like station wagons. Wish I'd never sold the Brookwood. And early Sixties seems the best era for sleek US car design, especially wagons. I like this bomb. For sale in Georgia. Needs some cosmetics but runs a 389 and 4-speed with a recent rebuild and quite a few upgrades listed such as a GTO cam and Holley four barrel carb. Additionally, rear air shocks and front discs have been added with fresh brake parts all around and the seller says the car is very reliable, having driven it on a few long trips. Despite the mechanical work done, the car requires some cosmetic attention inside as well as a bit of body and paint work. Find out more on B-A-T.
