Tony Valadez’ elegant 1939 Pontiac convertible is everything later Pontiac muscle cars are not. The later cars were brash, flashy and fast. Tony’s vintage Pontiac is none of these things. Instead it is handsome and understated. It is also roomy, comfortable, smooth, quiet, durable and dependable. And when I say durable, consider this, Valadez’ Deluxe Six 26th series Pontiac has been around for nearly 80 years and is still on the road, and still a styling knock out.
Tony purchased the car, already meticulously restored, from an extensive, local Pontiac collection that was being sold off. He was a little concerned about how his wife might receive the news, but she loves their classic drop-top Poncho, and enjoys the show circuit as much as Tony does.
