Vehicle Detail
CAR COLLECTION LIQUIDATION / GARAGE SALE! * WE ARE SELLING A LARGE 20+ YEAR COLLECTION OF INTERESTING PROJECT CARS OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS! * KEEP AN EYE ON OUR AUCTIONS FOR SOME GREAT LOW RESERVE & NO RESERVE DEALS! * THE NEXT ONE UP FOR BID: 1967 PONTIAC CATALINA CONVERTIBLE WITH SOME FRESH FUEL, A FRESH TUNEUP & MINOR MAINTENANCE TLC, YOU CAN DRIVE WHILE YOU RESTORE. THESE ARE GETTING HARDER EVERY DAY TO FIND! WE HAVE PUT 27 PICS TO TRY & COVER EVERYTHING THAT WE THINK THE CAR NEEDS, SO PLEASE BE PATIENT WITH THE LONG DESCRIPTION! THIS CAR HAS A LOT OF POTENTIAL TO BE A REAL BEAUTY! IMPORTANT TITLE INFO: The title we have for it is an Oregon "Lien Sale" title & it will come with a Bill of Sale as well. This is done when the former title is not surrendered to the new owner & it clears any & all former liens & owners off the title & allows the new owner to get a clear new title for the vehicle. This is everything that the new buyer will need in the State of Oregon to transfer the title & get a new title in their name. IF YOU ARE OUTSIDE OF OREGON & NEED A REGULAR TITLE TO TRANSFER OWNERSHIP IN YOUR STATE OR COUNTRY, IT IS NOT A PROBLEM : We can & will happily transfer the Lien title at our local Oregon DMV for you and get you a new regular Oregon title for the Oregon title transfer fee of $77. We do not charge anything above the DMV fees to do this for our customers. (This takes approximately 2 to 3 weeks.) THIS ONE RUNS & LOT DRIVES. BUT WILL NEED WORK BEFORE IT IS A DRIVER. IT WAS OWNED BY A COLLECTOR & HAS BEEN IN STORAGE FOR SOME TIME. PLEASE NOTE: THIS CAR WILL BE A SUPER EZ ONE TO RESTORE FOR ANYONE WITH AUTO RESTORATION KNOWLEDGE. BUT KEEP IN MIND: IT COULD BE MORE CHALLENGING FOR PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE THE EXPERIENCE YET. ALTHOUGH ONE OF THE GREAT THINGS ABOUT THESE CARS IS HOW SIMPLE & BASIC THEY ARE. IT IS ONE OF THE REASONS THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN POPULAR. THIS ONE OBVIOUSLY ISN'T A DAILY DRIVER YET, BUT REALLY SHOULD NOT TAKE MUCH TO MAKE IT ONE. CERTAINLY A GREAT CAR TO RESTORE! THE FRONT END IS NICE & STRAIGHT. THE FRONT FENDERS, FRONT LOWER VALANCE, FRONT BUMPER & HOOD ARE ALL STRAIGHT & OVERALL VERY CLEAN. PAINT IS DEFINITELY OLD & IT'S TIME FOR A NEW PAINT JOB. CLASSIC CRUISER! THE CAR HAS SOME RUST THAT WILL NEED TO BE REPAIRED IN A FEW AREAS BUT IS OVERALL VERY SOLID. IT WILL NEED THE LOWER REAR PORTION OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT FENDER REPAIRED. AVAILABLE THROUGH US FOR OUR WHOLESALE COST. (SEE PICS BELOW) AND THE REAR OF PASSENGER FRONT FENDER & LOWER FRONT SECTION OF THE PASSENGER DOOR. (SEE BELOW) THE ONLY OTHER AREA THAT WE HAVE SEEN THAT WILL NEED REPAIR IS THE TRUNK FLOOR. NOTICE HOW CLEAN THE UNDERSIDE OF THE TRUNK & THE EDGE AROUND THE TRUNK OPENING WHERE THE SEAL SITS. BOTH AREAS VERY CLEAN & SOLID. HAS THE FACTORY a/c UNDER DASH DUCTING & FACTORY JACK & WIPER MOTOR IN THE TRUNK. BUT THE TRUNK FLOOR IS IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. (ALSO AVAILABLE THROUGH US FOR OUR WHOLESALE COST.) OTHERWISE THE REST OF THE CAR LOOKS TO BE VERY SOLID! SOLID FLOORBOARDS SOLID ROCKERS SOLID QUARTERS SOLID HOOD & TRUNK ETC. HERE ARE THE PARTICULARS: VIN: 252677X178287 ODOMETER READING: 48880 WE DO NOT GET SECURE ODOMETER STATEMENTS ON CARS OLDER THAN 10 YEARS, SO LIKE ALL OF OUR VEHICLES 10 YEARS & OLDER IT IS BEING SOLD AS:MILES EXEMPT. NICE SET OF AFTERMARKET ALLOY WHEELS. NICE SET OF MATCHING WHITE LETTER RADIAL TIRES WITH ABOUT 60-70% TREAD LIFE LEFT. WE HAVE THE 2 PIECES OF SIDE TRIM THAT ARE MISSING ON THE PASSENGER DOOR & REAR QUARTER & THEY WILL GO WITH THE CAR. THE REAR TOP GLASS IS MISSING. ALL OTHER GLASS IS GOOD. THE POWER TOP ACTUALLY WORKS, AND ALTHOUGH IT COULD USE A NEW BACK WINDOW & A COUPLE SEAMS SEWN, SHOULD HAVE SOME LIFE LEFT IN IT. WE CAN ARRANGE THESE REPAIRS OR A NEW TOP FOR THE BUYER AT OUR WHOLESALE COST FOR THE BUYER AS WELL! TAILLIGHTS, TAILLIGHT PANEL & TRUNK LID ALL LOOK GOOD. YOU CAN SEE HOW STRAIGHT IT IS BY LOOKING DOWN THE SIDES IN THESE PICS. GREAT LINES ! INTERIOR: THE CARPETING IS STILL HANGING ON PRETTY WELL, BUT IS OLD & DIRTY. CARPET SETS FOR THIS CAR CAN ALSO BE FOUND ON EBAY FOR AS LOW AS $135 BRAND NEW. DASH PAD HAS CRACKS & YOU WILL WANT TO REPLACE IT OR AT LEAST GET A DASH COVER IF YOU WANT TO RESTORE IT. THE SEATS FRAMES ARE IN GOOD SHAPE, BUT WILL NEED TO BE REUPHOLSTERED. (WE CAN ALSO HAVE THIS PROFESSIONALLY DONE FOR THE BUYER AT OUR WHOLESALE COST.) REAR SEAT IS READY FOR REUPHOLSTERY AS WELL. THIS WOULD RUN ABOUT $260 FOR THE FRONT & $220 FOR THE REAR SEAT IN A FACTORY PATTERN. THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR PANEL COULD MAYBE BE REPAIRED, BUT PROBABLY SHOULD JUST BE REPLACED. THE PASSENGER COULD DEFINITELY BE SAVED, BUT ONCE AGAIN, THEY ARE NOT THAT HARD TO JUST REPLACE. VIEW OF THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT. VIEW OF THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR. OTHER THAN THE EDELBROCK CARBURETOR, THE V8 LOOKS ALL ORIGINAL & ACTUALLY RUNS GOOD IF YOU LET IT WARM UP FOR A WHILE. BUT THE FUEL IS OLDER & I'M SURE A FRESH TUNEUP BEFORE YOU START DRIVING IT DAILY WOULD BE JUST BE WISE. (WE CAN ALSO & WOULD BE HAPPY TO ARRANGE THIS AT COST FOR THE BUYER.) BUT OTHER THAN THE TUNING & OLD FUEL ISSUES, THE ENGINE ACTUALLY RUNS SMOOTH & STRONG. MECHANICAL: ENGINE SIZE: WE WERE TOLD IT IS A 400ci V8. HAVE NOT CHECKED THE CODES, BUT THAT'S WHAT IT SHOULD BE. TRANSMISSION: TYPE: AUTOMATIC SEEMS TO SHIFT JUST FINE. BRAKES TYPE: HYDRAULIC CONDITION: THEY WILL NEED WORK, SINCE IT HAS BEEN SITTING. STEERING: CONDITION: NICE & TIGHT! FEELS GOOD. WHEELS: AFTERMARKET ALLOYS. NICE CONDITION! TIRES STEEL RADIALS. CONDITION: LOOK TO BE IN GOOD SHAPE. EXHAUST: SEEMS GOOD. NICE & QUIET! WELL! I THINK WE COVERED EVERYTHING GOOD & BAD! BOTTOM LINE, IT'S A GREAT CAR THAT DESERVES TO BE RESTORED & SHOULD MAKE SOMEONE A REAL TREASURE! GREAT CAR WITH ALL SORTS OF POTENTIAL!
