Description
Cruising Down Memory Lane in 1957 Pontiac Chieftain.
Photo of back road somewhere outside of Waco, Texas, going toward Athens. The original photo was a country road and then a 1957 Pontiac Chieftain was added, using Corel Paint and many brushes and blending techniques. Sky texture was added for drama.

The Pontiac Chieftain was an automobile produced by the Pontiac Motors Division of General Motors from 1949 to 1958. Chieftains were one of the first all new car designs to come to Pontiac in the post World War II years. Previous cars had been 1942 models with minor revisions.
New "Star Flight" styling graced the 1957 Chieftains. This new theme included missile shaped side trim, extended rear fenders with V-shaped tips, lower hoods and massive bumpers. A new Super Chief sub-series debuted within the Chieftain line. These were the meant to be the top of the line Chieftain models. Sales were 58.02% of all Pontiacs in 1957.
