The video reminds me of Sunday drives with my dad when we'd be the only car on the road. Very peaceful times.

This is the 1st time I've ever seen one. Pontiac is my favorite brand. A lot of nostalgia for me. I mean this when I say, Thank you so much for taking the time to put this video together.

I have always loved the hood ornaments on these Pontiacs.

Some 1942 cars came without their chrome bright work, because chrome was rationed. Some 1942 cars also came with special covers for headlights to make them harder to spot from the air.

Wow, never have seen a rear wiper on cars that age!

Fantastic car....mostly orginal! And a 1942! very rare indeed. Thanks for posting Jeff! This body style was also know as a sedanette.

Great car Jeff, bargain classic you can enjoy

Beautiful. A torpedo back in the forties, a fastback in the sixties.

Just found out about these cars after I did research trying to find out what the remains of a car that is in the woods by my house. Turns out it’s was once one of these! Very beautiful car and if I didn’t have kids in college, I might drive out to Staunton and pick it up as I’m just over the river in St. Louis!! Thanks for posting!

I have seen a couple of 42 Fords in my life, at least ones that I recognized and remember. Thanks for bringing us this, it is a great looking car and cheaper than the body work can be done to restore a car.

My late father bought his first car a 1950 Pontiac Chieftain. Lemon yellow below the window and dark green above. He bought it from the original owner.From 1942 till 1949 the radiator grill changed very little.

Thats a great price for such a rare car.

Wow!!!! You can’t even look at that Pontiac for 17K today… I wish I would’ve seen your video 4 years ago.

Always a fan of the Pontiac Torpedo, and this is exceptional! :) Jack

A beautiful and irreplaceable piece of Americana, thanks for sharing Jeff.

Very impressive car with the great profile of Chief Pontiac on the hood ornament, that's classic. It has lots of style, with a flat head 6 engine and 3 on the tree, I like it

Never seen one before this one The trim on the hood reminds me of an Oldsmobile

Awesome Car!! That sunset couldn't have been better for that video!! Well done Mate!!☺

Super cool classic.

Wow. That's a stunning vehicle. Very nicely filmed!

Wow! a rare one there. Love that front end on the '42. The GM Aerosedans are one of my all time favorite cars. I'll take any one. The crowning touch on these are skirts and Fulton visors to complete the streamline look. Simply art on wheels.

A real work of art exterior as well as interior.

Chief pontiac would be proud of this beautyfull car 🤟 love it thanks jeff and Jordan for this 😊 😊 video

Not very many '42 civilian vehicles of any marque were produced, for obvious reasons commencing in December of '41. Very cool, always a treat to see a 1942 anything. Thanks for posting.

Beautiful

Nice.. never even knew about this model. This would be great with a old Caddy V-8 under the hood. Great buy for someone, Thanks Jeff, Paint looks great too !!

They even had wiper on the back window so cool.

excellent video. nice car great edit.

Wow. Love that thing!

Great job ❤😂😅.

Wow! In 1942 were'nt they making tanks?

If I went to the trouble, time and expense to do a frame off restoration, like on this car, I know that I would have spent at least a little more money and painted the engine!

That is a Masive looking Car 😊

Lovely car.

Very nice Pontiac Torpedo!

stunning. how much does that cost now?

Pontiac, nine years without your models, projects, concepts, life style....

Wow / Nice find. What Interstate are you off of? / Two tone cars with a nice hood ornament with the split windshield make for a classic ride. Cool 😎 • Cheers from The Detroit & Mackinac Railway 🚂

Just think these could have been the last American cars ever if ww2 was lost by the allies

Nice car at a great price! Too bad the steering wheel wasn't restored.

Красава!!

My Great Uncle had one like that My Uncle Al My Dads Uncle his was green

This car is 79 years old

If only I were rich!!!WOW!!!❤❤❤😂

Any 1942 model car is collectible, due to the abbreviated production run caused by the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour. Less than a month after the Japanese attack, the federal government’s Office of Production Management froze car-making. OPM’s officials also froze the sale and delivery of cars-except for individuals who had signed a contract, to buy a car, before January 1, 1942. If a person had such a signed contract, the local rationing board could issue a permit allowing the buyer to secure the car’s delivery. Every American car manufacturer had to end car production by the 22nd of February, 1942. All cars and light trucks which hadn’t been sold by that cutoff date-around 520,000 of them-became part of a new stockpile. While the war lasted, those stockpiled vehicles could be sold to “essential drivers” via a system of rationed sales. Of the handful of passenger cars manufactured in January and February 1942, many used painted rather than plated exterior trim, as chromium was declared a strategic material. Extremely rare today, these vehicles are known as blackout or victory models. Here are the dates when various manufacturers stopped building '42 models: January 24th - Willys Overland January 29th - Dodge January 31st - Lincoln, Chrysler & Studebaker February 3rd - Oldsmobile, Buick, Cadillac, Hudson & Nash. February 6th - Chevrolet February 9th - Ford & Packard February 10th - Pontiac

for sale?

is it for sale?

Why don't they make so beautiful cars like this anymore? I'm sick of new cars, they're ugly, uninventive design.

About as rare as they get.

Just posted a 48 torpedo video not sure if I should get her or not check it out on my channel and tell me what you think

Anyone here after watching Lucifer S5 E4 ?

Jordan fix this car and you have a New podracer
