About Pontiac's Catalina 2+2 Model:
The Pontiac Catalina offered the upscale 2+2 option beginning in
1964 as an upscale big brother version of the GTO, which was also
offered for the first time that year. It would include bucket
seats, center console, special door panels and exterior badging. In
1965, the 2+2 package option now came standard with a 421ci V8,
dual exhaust, a performance 3.42 axle ratio, heavy duty sports
spring & shock absorbers, and decorative faux louvers on the
exterior body. Additionally, the old Hydramatic transmission was
replaced with a new Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed synchromesh automatic
transmission. Although it was still an option on Pontiac's B-body
platform, the Catalina nameplate would not be found anywhere on the
car, just the prized 2+2 designation!
