Support the website and get more from the classifieds
PontiacChieftain.com is an independent, ad-free resource dedicated to documenting and preserving 1949–1954 Pontiacs — from VIN & Body Tag decoders to factory manuals, restoration references, and the community classifieds. Support helps keep the site running while also helping make the classifieds more useful for everyone in the hobby.
What you see today did not happen overnight. Thousands of hours have gone into researching information, scanning manuals, building databases, writing reference material, and developing new features for PontiacChieftain.com. Becoming a supporter helps ensure the site continues to grow and remain a free resource for everyone interested in 1949–1954 Pontiacs.
No popups. No outside ads. No pressure. Supporting the site is optional, but it helps cover the costs of keeping the archive, databases, and classifieds available.
Secure payments are processed through PayPal. In most cases, you can also pay with a credit or debit card without creating a PayPal account.

All supporter levels receive the same classifieds benefits. The only difference is how long your Supporter status remains active.

| $10 | 2 years of Supporter benefits | Support $10 |

Supporter benefits include automatic classifieds approval, a Supporter badge on your marketplace profile/listings, and forum supporter recognition when your forum account is connected or uses the same account information.
Supporter badge
Your marketplace profile and listings can show a Supporter badge so other Pontiac hobbyists know you are helping support the site.
Forum recognition
If you also sign up on the PontiacChieftain.com forum, your forum account can be highlighted as a supporter there as well.
How the classifieds support system helps
The classifieds are meant to be a simple, hobby-focused place for 1949–1954 Pontiac owners to find parts, sell extras, list cars, and post wanted ads without turning the site into a commercial ad wall. The supporter system keeps the manual review protection in place for regular submissions while giving trusted supporters a smoother listing process.
- Helps keep the classifieds active and maintained
- Supports hosting, backups, large PDF downloads, and site improvements
- Helps fund future archive material, scans, databases, and preservation work
- Gives regular Pontiac contributors a visible way to support the community
Important: Supporter status does not allow spam, unrelated modern parts, or non-Pontiac listings. Classifieds should still be relevant to the 1949–1954 Pontiac hobby and may be removed if they do not fit the site.
Thank you for helping preserve Pontiac history and keeping the classifieds useful for the hobby.
