Catalina sounds quite exotic, doesn’t it? Well, it’s a fitting name for Pontiac’s top-of-the-line offering of the '50s and '60s. Initially seen as a trim level for the Chieftain in 1950, the Catalina became its own model line-up by 1959. The range would expand over time to cover coupes, convertibles, hardtops, sedans, and station wagons. So why not experience a slice of Catalina goodness, with this 1962 Pontiac Catalina Convertible? The car has done 75,000 miles and is for sale by its original owner.
This 1962 Pontiac Catalina Convertible has got quite a nautical theme going, thanks to its Sky Blue paint job and overall length, which really embodies the term Land Yacht. Stretching to around 210 inches in length, this is clearly a large automobile. You’ll note the extensive front and rear overhangs too, because the wheelbase is nearly 100 inches shorter than the car’s overall length. Then, you’ll find chromed bumpers and trim, dual headlamps, and a white convertible top. You need not exert much energy to deploy or lower this top; since this is a flagship car, you’ve got power assistance for the task. Simply operate the chrome switch in the center of the dashboard marked ‘top’, and it’s all done for you. The car rides on a set of Michelin tires, wrapped around a set of chrome wheels. The passenger cabin of this 1962 Pontiac Catalina Convertible features a matching blue theme, and provides front plus rear bench seats. With the top dropped, you can almost imagine the sheer joy of driving this vehicle, with one elbow resting atop the driver’s door, sunglasses on, enjoying the attention from onlookers as you drive by. The dashboard hosts the original push-button radio, but there’s a newer Blaupunkt unit with CD player installed directly beneath the upper dashboard. You’ve also got a heater for comfort on cold days and nights.
Even though this 1962 Pontiac Catalina Convertible is a sizable automobile, its 389ci V8 should have no trouble moving it around without annoying other road users. Thanks to its trio of carburetors and added cams, the engine should make a healthy amount of power too. Furthermore, you’re in control of that power, thanks to the car’s manual transmission. However, with drum brakes on all four wheels, you’ve still got ample stopping power.

The Catalina nameplate in Pontiac nomenclature initially represented a top-level trim for the existing Chieftain Eight and DeLuxe Eight models. However, as we’ve seen many times before with American manufacturers, trim levels have been spun off as separate models. For the Catalina, this happened in 1959, offered as a two-door coupe, convertible, four-door sedan and station wagon. Today, the Catalina may not be at the top of every classic car collector’s list because not everyone remembers it, but it’s definitely an appealing choice for someone who wants to diverge from the crowd. This particular 1964 Pontiac Catalina is a four-door sedan hailing from Ballston Spa, New York, and comes with the original spare tire plus original bill of sale and even the original manual. Having traveled 77,421 miles so far, it’s ready for a new owner who will look after it and cherish it as it deserves. If that’s you, get in touch with us ASAP.

Long, sleek and majestic, the Pontiac Catalina was the iconic brand’s full-size offering for over thirty years. Introduced in 1950 as a trim line, then a stand-alone model in 1959, the Catalina would become one of Pontiac’s most popular models. If you’ve always wanted to be the proud owner of a Catalina, because let’s face it, who wouldn’t, we’ve got a 1962 Pontiac Catalina Restomod for your consideration. This car packs a tasty surprise beneath the hood, and is ready to turn heads.
If you want a Sixties GTO but can’t quite stretch to the prices that pristine examples fetch, this black 1967 Pontiac LeMans Convertible GTO Tribute is a viable contender to consider. It’s available in Greenacres, Florida, with a 400ci V8 under the hood and a TH400 3-speed autobox for ease of driving. With less than 23,000 miles on the clock, this baby also rocks an aftermarket exhaust, the famous His & Hers shifter, and some aftermarket upgrades too. It’s a cool car to cruise around in, but bury the throttle pedal and it can really take off, with the accompanying V8 rumble making everyone within earshot tingle in excitement.
Pontiac’s Star Chief was a full-size offering available between 1947 and 1966, across six generations. It represented the top trim level for the Chieftain model, and as such, sat at the upper echelons of Pontiac’s hierarchy. Today’s 1957 Pontiac Star Chief Custom Safary 2-Door Wagon Restomod is a bit different, though. It’s a restomod with some neat upgrades and makes for a fine classic daily driver. With over 120,000 miles on the clock, this car has been around quite a bit, but it’s not tired at all. Rather, this Riverside-based Pontiac is ready for even more action if you please. It’s got a 347ci V8 with FiTech Go Tri-Power electronic fuel injection, an aftermarket audio system and even air conditioning!
Now here’s a custom third-generation Trans Am that isn’t modeled after the most famous of them all; KITT. If you want a third-gen F-body pony car from Pontiac with some limited-edition chops, this 1986 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Tojan by Knudsen is your car. It’s one of just a hundred and fifty examples made by Knudsen Automotive, and comes with Tojan brochures plus original dealer paperwork to back up its authenticity status. With just under 64,000 miles on the clock, this rather interesting car is up for grabs in Cincinnati, Ohio, and we’d suggest that you act fast because being just 1 of 150 means its rarer than many supercars!
