For Sale: 1961 Pontiac Catalina in Ft Worth, Texas

Vehicle Description

Racing inspiration comes alive in the 1961 Pontiac Catalina Super Duty Tribute. Finished in clean white paint that shows off the classic Catalina shape, this performance machine looks fast even when parked. Featuring 15-inch wheels on all four corners they come wrapped in Mickey Thompson rubber measuring 26x8.00R15 up front with wider 26x10.00R15 in the rear for improved traction. Every exterior detail has been selected to match the Super Duty aesthetic for which these Catalinas became famous.

Green vinyl and cloth cover the interior surfaces, creating a period-correct atmosphere inside this Pontiac. A bench seat provides comfort while driving, complemented by the precise control of a floor-mounted Hurst shifter. AutoMeter gauges mounted under the dash display essential oil pressure and water temperature readings. The absence of a radio keeps distractions to a minimum, allowing full concentration on the driving experience. Each interior component reflects the car's performance orientation.

Look at the motor and you'll find a 421 V8 that's been bored and stroked to an impressive 466 cubic inches. The engine features Edelbrock aluminum heads, an Edelbrock intake manifold, and dual Edelbrock 600 CFM carburetors. A Crane competition roller camshaft provides ideal valve timing for maximum performance. Shifting happens through a close-ratio Muncie 4-speed manual transmission. Handling gets an upgrade with Hotchkis trailing arms, while four-wheel power disc brakes offer excellent stopping capability.
