This is a very cool old Pontiac Catalina bubble top. It is running a rebuilt high horsepower 400 V-8 out of a 1967 GTO. Trans is a Borg Warmer T-10 - 4 - speed. Car was originally a 3 speed on the column car. See the factory auto selector delete plate in the dash pictures. Rear end has highway gears for good gas mileage and highway cruising. It has new brakes, exhaust, tires, sway bars front and rear, and various other parts. The chrome and stainless trim is all good to excellent in condition. No need to redo any of it. The front and rear windshield glass are good, but all side glass should be replaced. You can get all 6 pieces for both sides new for under $250.00. It is the same as a 1960 Chevrolet hard top car. The car was sandblasted with the side windows down and all trim off of the car. The sand blasting found it's way through the holes where the trim / door hardware attaches so all glass is etched to some degree. The paint is driver quality. It looks good from 15' away, but whoever did the paint did not prep it right. There are many imperfections. There is a small dent on top of the left front fender. The good news is that it appears that the car retains all original body panels. Sure you can tell where some small areas were repaired down low, but there was no major panels replaced or big rust holes that have been filled in. Has the original rocker panels. A magnet sticks just about everywhere. Floor boards have had some repair also, but the original floor is still there. All body mounts are super solid. The interior has been replaced, but it is dated. Looks like it was done in the 80's. All of the lights, wipers, speedometer, gauges, horn, heater, etc. work. It has a vintage Pontiac factory tach on the dash that also works. The emergency brake works but needs another ratchet / pedal. It does not stay down when depressed. Trunk appears to be solid. Comes with 2 boxes of extra parts. Also has a very nice stereo system with sub woofer in the trunk area. I have the original radio in the trunk and the dash was not altered. All in all, this a great running car that you can fly in and drive home. It drives and stops very solid. It has sway bars front and rear so it does not roll into the corners like a typical "X" frame car. It gets lots of attention at car shows and you won't have to worry about seeing another one like it when you show up. Drive it as is with pride and then finish it to your specifications as time and money permits. Where else can you get a good looking 2 door bubble top car with a 4 speed for this low dollar amount?

Thanks, Dave I do not respond to text messages One more time, NO TRADES, Please do not ask. If you do not know, understand, and accept what "no trades" means, then you surely do not have a vehicle that I would be interested in. I do not respond to low ball offers, text messages, or take offers over the phone. If you want to make an offer, please do so through ebay email. Include your name and contact info. If I feel you are a serious buyer, I will contact you back. If you do not hear back from me, then my vehicle must be out of your price range. I do not give out my reserve price. Too many knuckleheads out there that like to play games with bidding just under the reserve amount with no intention of actually buying the vehicle. Makes it look like schill bidding is going on. If you have a feed back rating less that 100% or less than 10 total feedbacks, you might want to check with me before bidding. I will sometimes block or cancel bids if I get a bad feeling for the bidder. Non-paying winners are a real problem for sellers and it is hard to get seller fees refunded from Ebay in a timely manner, if at all. For you new members, please don't bid unless you know and accept how ebay works and understand that you are legally committing to purchase if you bid. Not following through with a purchase after winning an auction for a new member can result in ebay canceling your membership.
