1950 Pontiac

Dale Fisher's 1950 Pontiac Convertible of Sydney, Australia. Dale's Pontiac was a personal driver turned experiment in subtle styling and convertible engineering. Restyled after his full custom FJ Holden and a mild 1950 Plymouth, the Pontiac showcased Fisher’s evolving philosophy: clean lines, factory-like execution, and tasteful modifications. Painted yellow and black, it wore a mild custom look until Easter 1960, when Fisher boldly cut off the roof to convert it into an open car, just as his wife Yvonne was expecting a child. While not the most practical move, it highlighted Fisher’s dedication to creative craftsmanship over convention. Sold in 1961 to a buyer in Newcastle, the car helped bridge Fisher’s early customs and his later mastery of convertible conversions.
