Vehicle Description
This is an amazingly beautiful condition 1962 Pontiac Catalina that
has undergone a true nut & bolt, frame off restoration. Completed
some 5 years ago, the cost was well in excess of $100,000. With "no
bolt unturned", every single part of this car; outside, inside,
under the hood and the underside, is truly like brand new. Always
garage kept and only show displayed since its completion, it is a
testament to loving and caring craftsmanship and ownership. This
Pontiac Catalina was built in July 1962 in Southgate, California
and was first delivered to Gianera Pontiac of Montrose, California.
Finished in Starlight Black with optional Ventura upholstery (245)
featuring a tri-tone red, maroon, and white color scheme on the
front and rear bench seats. This is the 389ci V8 equipped with
Tri-Power carburetion ("Triple-deuces") and mated to a four-speed
manual transmission. Other equipment includes power steering, power
brakes, power windows, and a power-adjustable front bench seat, as
well as an aftermarket stereo and a Hurst shifter. This Catalina is
now offered for sale on consignment from the late owner's estate
with PHS documentation and a clean Illinois title. This car has
Pontiac's eight-lug wheel design consisting of an open steel rim
secured to an exposed finned-aluminum brake drum. The wheels wear
Pontiac Motor Division hubcaps and chrome trim rings and are fitted
with 225/70 radial whitewall tires. The odometer shows 4,100 miles,
all of which were travelled since completion of the refurbishment.
True mileage is unknown. Very little extra description is required
as the hundred's of photos say it all. It is highly recommended you
review of all these to best appreciate just how perfect and
incredibly well restored this Catalina is. To see more photos than

genuinely believe this Pontiac Catalina to be the best example
available for sale today. Chrome Package, Power Steering, Power
