A couple pontiac convertibles.
One is a 68 gto, factory 4-speed and rally gauges. I did a full frame off. It is painted but needs the cluster restored due to a short and final finishing touches. All work was done by me except block/head machining.
It is painted Meridian Turquoise which is the factory color. Redlines and rally 1s are original equipment too. http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m...intedframe.jpg http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps200adf83.jpg http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m...psed350d08.jpg http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m...psv5okov0e.jpg |

Next is a 62 pontiac catalina convertible. This was sold new in Bend, OR and has been in the southern oregon desert its whole life. I rescued it out of Lakeview, OR. (ever been there? I bet not!) But, that bodes quite well for rust. Just a small patch to fix in the lower LH quarter panel.
Factory color is black, with a tri-tone red interior. http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m...psd539d591.jpg Odometer says 29,xxx which I believe is correct. Check out the factory dated plug wires! http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m...psxusl55lo.jpg previous owner had already repainted the frame and underbody, and I'm not sad I don't have to do that. They also threw in a set of bucket seats and mounting brackets, and a tri-power intake. Rear is an 9.3" 3.42 posi. http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m...psdgxps51m.jpg Right now I'm working on the front suspension. Sourcing suspension parts for these old things can be troubling as nothing interchanged between divisions. This will be converted to disc brakes and I have black steelies with skinny whitewalls. http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m...pshsaogkxp.jpg |
Re: A couple pontiac convertibles.
Two nice cars you have. I think my favorite is the 62 Catalina as I love the early sixties Pontiacs. Coincidentally, my son owns a body shop and has a 68 GTO convertible in his storage barn waiting for him to decide what he wants to do with it. It appears to be the same color as yours. His is a highly optioned all original car with factory a/c, hood tach, etc. It runs and drives but needs rust repair.
