A real swiss cheese car is coming up for sale... I wonder what it will sell for http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2012/11/08/one-of-14-swiss-cheese-pontiac-heads-to-auction/
I have been debating selling my Catalina and I just can't get myself to do it. It is a perect project car that will be resting until I get to it. As far as other cars, I found and bought these in the spring. I never thought I would have a chance to own one so I jumped at the chance. 61 Ventura 425a car. Was allegedly a race car in Florida before coming up north. It has a 63 block in it with the correct heads and exhaust manifolds. To make it even more painful, the past owner cut the roof off for a custom project...ugh. Luckily, it came with another Ventura.... Enjoy..... The other car,,, I wish they could all be this straight.... WHat color do you think the 62 should be? I keep going back and forth. I want something other than red.
I bought a 61 Bonneville in 1966, tri power 389, 4 speed Hydro, and 8 lug wheels.... Sold it in 1972, wish I still had it !!!!!!!! 4TTRUK
dont forget canadian pontiacs 1964 pontiac parisienn Station Wagon Documented 409 400hp 4 speedhttp://www.bruneauperformance.ca/andys64safari409.html 1963 Pontiac Parisienne Safari 409 http://www.bruneauperformance.ca/my1963parisiennesafari409.html
How 'bout '62 Pontiac Yorktown Blue, or '63 Pontiac Nocturne Blue, or '62 Pontiac Silvermist Grey. I once saw a '62 GP in that Silvermist Grey and thot it looked pretty good.
I'll get pics of my 63 Catalina original 421 4 speed up here. Cool thread, I'm working on the car now.
Dr Dave your car looks great. I have a 64 ragtop too and have been looking for ideas. Did you shave the handles yourself?
Thanks for the kind words. Yes, I shaved the handles myself...back about 1986...with too big a welder at a friend of my dad's machine shop....with too much heat. Warped the doors real nice like. LOL. One of these days I will actually finish the crazy thing. Next year will be 30 years that I've had it...you'd think I could actually get it done in that time.
Jesse do you have the taillight extensions off the 64 ? Sitting on the shitter using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
I like how that 64 sits! What size wheels and tires are you running? Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Need to learn how to make these pictures bit smaller. Here`s mrs Pontmercs catalina.Me and she together painted and remanufactured catas body and powertrain.Now it`s historical vehicle registered.
Excellent! Thanks for the info. I intend on putting Supremes on mine, but wasn't sure what tire size would fit best. That's the same size tire I'm running now, so that's awesome.
