Vehicle Detail
Here for sale is a 1960 Pontiac Catalina Convertible . The interior is 100% original it as had 1 replaced top and 1 one repaint in the 70's. The top had a tear in the front of it and during transport ripped the center of the top off. The top rails are in excellent condition with original felt liner intact. This car is very straight and has very minimal rust on the body the areas are in the front and rear of the wheel wells of the quarter panels very minimal. The surface spots on the paint are just that surface rust as you can see in the photos. There is a hole in the center of the drivers side front floor pan that I have a new replacement panel for.The drivers side rear floor pan was replaced ( they did a nice job on it but its not original style sheet metal). The trunk was fiberglass years ago, It's solid but it should be replaced for a correct restoration. There are a few small areas on the inner rocker panel/floor extension that can be cut out and replaced and the flat bottom of the rocker panels have some bubbling that can be replaced. The exterior outer rocker panels are in nice shape with the exception of a small spot on the passenger side quarter rocker seam. Would be an easy repair what I'm trying to say is this car is not a total rust bucket but in nice solid restorable car. It has a set of fender skirts in the trunk that are in very nice condition along with the original jack and spare tire. I brought the car home to my shop and changed the oil , lubed the cylinders , cleaned the points, disconnected the fuel line to a small gas can in the front grill pan and started the car up and it run unbelievably well. I preceded to do a complete brake job on the car to make it mobile . I replaced the wheel cylinders. The drums and brakes shoes were as new so I did not replace them, I Greased and packed all the bearings . I had all new brake hoses made ane purchased a brand new master cylinder and when I went to change the master cylinder it was frozen to the booster. So the car is not operable for transport loading it will need a new master cylinder and brake booster , However, I can try to install the master cylinder without the brake booster to see if I can get a brake pedal for loading but I can not guarantee that but I will do my best but with a new brake booster and flushed fuel tank the car would be moble.
