I learned to drive on a 56 Pontiac Star Chief wagon - black with the light up hood ornament.

If I could buy a complete car for $5,000 would that be a good deal in your opinion?
Thanks.

1956 Pontiac Safari Station Wagon. The"upscale" sister to Chevy's Nomad. Nomads and Safaris were based on a GM Motorama showcar. Both were production station wagons in 1955-1956-1957. They were far too luxurious and pricey to be used as practical cargo and people haulers. A forward slanting pillar post and massive wraparound glass area made a styling statement not normally associated with station wagons. They are highly prized by Collectors today. The Pontiac version, the Safari, with more limited production numbers is the harder to find of the two.
