This setup balances raw power with drivability, making it more forgiving than a pure racer thanks to upgrades like overdrive and air conditioning. The drivetrain is complemented by power disc brakes up front and power drum brakes in the rear, power steering, and a suspension system with lifted front leaf springs and wrapped rear leaf springs with panhard bars for improved handling.Highlights1948 Pontiac Streamliner Torpedo Gasser Model454 V8 Engine With Dual Edelbrock Carburetors700R4 4-Speed Automatic TransmissionAir Conditioning With R-134A RefrigerantPower Steering And Power BrakesFront Power Disc Brakes, Rear Power Drum BrakesLifted Front Leaf Springs With Panhard BarRear Wrapped Leaf Springs With Panhard BarFive-Spoke Polished Aluminum WheelsMickey Thompson ET Street Rear TiresKumho Power Star Front TiresFull Red High-Gloss RepaintAftermarket Late-90s GM Bucket SeatsSummit Gauges And SunPro TachometerFinancing AvailableVehicle Protection Plans AvailableWorldwide ShippingThis 1948 Pontiac Streamliner Torpedo Gasser is a rare find, combining classic style with performance upgrades that make it an exciting and manageable ride.
