1947 Pontiac "Optimistic" Superior Model

These were interesting cars. Pontiac extended chassis adorned with the basic Superior body which they shared with the Cadillac models. Note the typically wide rear side doors and rear fenders with the Cadillac tail lights mounted thereon. That's the way Superior built'em. These were available with Superior's Sidroll side-loading in-floor roller system but, unfortunately not this particular example. You just don't see these old immediate post-war Superior-Pontiacs anymore. Would probably take someone with determination, dedication and deep pockets to properly restore this one but, I'd would hope it could be saved from a rodder or the crusher. I know that you've all heard me say this before but, this is a fairly rare vehicle.
 
This one is REALLY rotted out! I don't think that I would wish this one on anyone. Really just a parts car in this condition.
