1962 Pontiac Catalina

VIN:  362K19232

 

The Pontiac Catalina is a full-size, junior series automobile produced by Pontiac from 1950 to 1981.  The Catalina was Pontiac's most popular model, available in multiple body styles, and served as the donor platform for the popular Pontiac Grand Prix.

A new "three-speed four-range" "Roto Hydramatic" automatic transmission replaced the previous four-speed unit for 1961.  The new transmission is slimmer and lighter than the older four-speed Hydramatic,

 

The seller states that this 1962 Pontiac Catalina has the original Roto Hydramatic 3 speed transmission, powered by the original 389ci engine.  The odometer is reading 92539 but is not actual.  No modifications have been made to the vehicle.  There are disc brakes on the front and drums on the rear.  The seller states that the “P” came off the tail panel, but is currently sitting on the dash.  The battery hold down is missing, and also the dome light lens.  The seller notes that the steering wheel is cracked from shrinkage and the dash trim needs to be replaced.  The speedometer is stuck, the cigarette lighter is missing and both door knobs are absent as well.  The dome light works, the radio works, the headlights work but the wiper blades do not work.

 

The seller states the car runs, drives and stops with no problems.  The overall ride is “nice”.
