One of very few in existence in France,

this particular Pontiac Chieftain also comes along with the "Woodies" finish.

 

First generation Chieftains came with a choice of four engines:

 

* a 239.2 in³ L-head 6-cylinder engine making 90 horsepower (67 kW) at 3400 rpm

* a 239.2 in³ L-head 6-cylinder engine making 93 horsepower (69 kW) at 3400 rpm

* a 268.2 in³ L-head 8-cylinder making 103 horsepower (77 kW) at 3800 rpm

* a 268.2 in³ L-head 8-cylinder making 106 horsepower (79 kW) at 3800 rpm

 

The horsepower differences between each of the 6- and 8-cylinder engines were due to changes in compression ratios.
