Vehicle Description
1970 Pontiac Catalina - 9 Passenger Wagon
If you were cruising in a station wagon back in the day odds are it
was with your family. Perfect for road trips these cars were known
as a family vehicle that you would typically see packed to the roof
with luggage and screaming kids. Well this beautiful 1970 Pontiac
Catalina may have started life that way but nowadays has a certain
cool factor that sets it apart from those other boring wagons. With
a nose similar to that of a grand prix or early firebird this car
has style. You rarely see these cars up for sale and this one
happens to be one of the nicest in the country.
From front to rear this long classic is nothing but high quality.
The fit and finish is superb making it a contender at every car
show it goes to. The body on the car is in incredible condition and
with deep Black paint looks very slick cruising down the road. All
of the chrome has a beautiful shine as does the stainless work
which is all cleanly mounted in place. The soft ray tinted glass
windows are all in good condition and free from damage. The factory
roof rack is still mounted in place on top of the factory vinyl
roof and has a very cool angled design. 17" Torque Thrust wheels
are in place on all four corners and are polished out to a very
high quality shine. These are then wrapped with Red Line
continental tires.
Powering this classic is a 400CI motor that runs very strong and
has no problem moving the 9 passenger wagon body. The look is all
original which is nice to see in a low mileage car like this. Dual
exhaust is in place and routed out of the sides just behind the
rear wheels. Rectangle tips were added which hug the body giving it
a nice custom touch. Backing the motor is a 400 Turbo Hydramatic
Transmission that shifts smoothly and with no issues. The car was
fitted with A/C from the factory as well as power steering and
power disc brakes.
The interior of the car is in amazing condition for its age and
still has the original look. Black vinyl is used throughout and is
in great shape. 3 bench seats are in place with the back one being
mounted to face the rear. This gives places for 9 people to sit
comfortably, thus the name 9 passenger wagon. When not hauling
people around the 2 rear seats can be folded down giving a ton of
storage space. To gain access to the rear seat you can open the
rear hatch which was designed to open in 2 ways. This is incredibly
cool to see on an over 40 year old car. The hatch folds down like
the typical truck bed but also swings open towards the left like a
regular door. All of the trim in the car is in good shape as are
all of the faux original wood panels. The dash utilizes all of the
original style components. The A/C works properly and uses the
stock vents which are nicely inset into the dash. Another cool
feature is the remote drivers side mirror and power windows which
is are pretty cool luxuries to have considering it is from the
70's.
This car comes with a lot of cool extras that document its history.
A lot of these items are hard to find so it is nice to see them
preserved so well. This includes a 7 page original 1970s Station
Wagon brochure that was put out by the dealerships, a Pontiac Motor
Division redelivery check list, original build sheet, original
window sticker with options/price listed and a 1970's original
owners manual. How cool is that!? Look around for another one of
these cars and you will have a tough time finding one. Plus, if you
do happen to find one it won't be near as nice as this one is.
