1960 Pontiac Catalina, 2 door, hardtop, PS, PB Back story and reason it’s for sale… Purchased this car as a driver, I picked it up off of ebay 2.5 years ago, I wasn’t excited about the driveline and made some big changes to make it more what I wanted. Put it on the dyno the first year out with factory intake and 63mm throttle body, and put 420 hp to the rear wheels with a conservative tune and a bad cam sensor, since then changed a lot of pieces, car is noticeably faster and has tons more power (guessing 475-500 at the wheels now) but haven’t been back to the dyno since). Changed front and rear window gaskets and to that the dash had to come out (fun fun) that’s what started the redo of the interior and the freshly painted roof. Basically I'm selling the driveline and upgrades I've made and still taking a loss not counting any cost for the shell at all. Theres no way you could do this for the selling cost. All in all a great car, fun to drive, dependable, and fast, but I’ve got my eyes on another one now so it’s time for this one to go. What it looks like (exterior)… Baby blue (8-10 years old, showing wear has some nicks chips etc but good driver quality) with freshly painted roof (Bright white with mild diamond ice pearl), Deleted wiper holes in cowl panel. What you’re sitting in (interior)… White/blue seats and door panels, Billet steering wheel/ and adapter, fresh carpet, new kick panels with speakers, cd player with auxiliary input, all interior metalwork custom painted bright white with a mild diamond ice pearl., one of the previous owners had installed an amp gauge in the dash and I thought it looked tacky so I replaced it with a white faced autometer clock. Done in 2014 What it rolls on (rims) … rear 20x8.5 front 18x8 Chrome Boss 338. All lug nuts switched to standard instead of half being LH threads.
