It's a great life, Catalina-Style.
The Catalina 2 + 2 from Pontiac for 1966
"The wonderful Wide-Track way to go form place to place."
Now in its 3rd year, this limited edition, personal performance car has all the get-up-and-go you'd expect when Pontiac, goes al out – plus all the room, comfort and appointments of a luxury passenger car.
The standard 4-barrel carburetor 421-cubic inch V-8 -topped off with chromed rocker covers and low restriction air cleaner- delivers 338 bhp. And it drives a fully-synchronized, floor mounted, heavy-duty three speed transmission.
Special springs and shocks and high performance axle ratio are standard, as well as the dashing pin striping shows off the long, low lines of this Convertible.
Inside, door-to-door loop pile nylon blend carpeting and sleek, new bucket seats sweep you up with that GO-GO-GO SPIRIT.
Just being in the 2+2 makes you forget the hum-drum, run-of -the-road-type transportation.
