If you are restoring a 59 Catalina Vista, and it is rusty or in otherwise poor condition, get this car and use this body and your interior and other parts to make one good car out of two. Here is the condition of the car as accurately as I can
describe it: HOOD: The hood is very solid, rust free under side
and top. It appears to have been hit
very slightly in the nose, and the top is buckled up about a third of the way
back. A good body man could easily
straighten it back to original shape with very little effort. (I also have another hood that is in better
shape I would consider including, in place of this one, if the buyer wishes.) FRONT/ENGINE
COMPARTMENT: The radiator support,
and inner fenders are solid, no rust.
The engine and transmission look to be okay, but I have never had it
running or taken the engine apart, so I don't know its condition. At a minimum, there would be many 389 engine
parts that are good, if the engine cannot be repaired as is. There is no steering gear and no brake master
cylinder. There is a 2-barrel carb. There is a Buick radiator sitting in the
radiator slot, but I don't know its condition.
There is no front bumper. The
grille, grille bars and sheet metal under the grille are all in repairable
condition. There is no grille trim. FR FENDERs: The front fenders are not in good
condition. Both have dents on the front
edge over the headlights and both have rust in the lower back section near the
door. The left fender appears to have
been repaired at some point over the wheel opening and has some other minor
dents. It could be salvaged, but is
certainly not mint. The right fender is
straighter, but the rust is worse in the lower rear section. DOORS: There is virtually no rust on any of the
doors, inside or out, top or bottom. The
chrome window frames are in excellent condition, and for a driver, would
probably not even need to be re-chromed.
The windows are still in the back doors and have been removed from the
front doors. The front door regulators
are missing. There is some very minor creases or dents on
the L rear, L front and R rear doors, but nothing significant or difficult to
repair. ROCKER PANELS: The rocker panels are rust free and straight. QUARTER PANELS: The right quarter panel is very straight
and only has a very small patch (about the size of a quarter) of rust over the
wheel opening about 2/3 of the way back.
No rust on the rear bottom where '59s usually are rusted. The left panel has been hit from the rear and
is buckled somewhat around the backup light opening, over the wheel opening,
and in front of the wheel opening. This
quarter panel it totally rust free however, and the damage is not so bad that
good body man and a port-a-power jack couldn't straighten. The trim on both sides in in good shape and
could be polished to like new condition. REAR PANEL: The panel between the tail lights is bent in
from a rear end hit, but is solid and has no rust. The bumper ends are good enough to re-chrome,
but the center section is bent pretty bad and I don't know if it can be
straightened or not. DECK LID: The deck lid is rust free, except for a patch
of surface rust where the paint is gone.
The trim is nice. It has a couple
minor dings, but could easily be straightened and polished to look like
new. The deck lid has a very minor
buckle on the underneath right side and therefore a very gentle curve to the
top that would need to be repaired.
Otherwise it is very good condition and is easily repairable. FLOORS: The floors are in remarkably good
condition compared to many '59s. The
front floor pans and the floor under the front seats are very solid. The left rear seat floor pan (where your feet
go) have some rust but only have small areas that are rusted through. The right side has some surface rust, but not
clear through. The floor under the rear
seat is very solid. The trunk floor is
solid and only show a small area of rust-through in front of the tail light
support TOP: The top still has the original paint and
is very straight. The stainless steel
trim around the top is in good shape.
Some minor dents could be easily straightened and the trim polished to
like new condition. Likewise for the
windshield reveals and the rear window side reveals. (Not sure whether I have the bottom reveals
or not. INTERIOR: The dash, interior door handles, window
cranks, and a couple door panels are included.
There are no seats or other interior. Call 303-378-7831 if you have questions. |

New Forza 6 car pack will let you race the Pontiac Aztek
Fri, Jan 29 2016Just in time for this weekend's Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona, the new Alpinestars Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6 on the Xbox One lets you slip into the driver's seat of last year's winner. If you want to take something much weirder for a spin, the collection also includes a 2005 Pontiac Aztek. The download is available now for $6.99. The Ford #02 Chip Ganassi Racing Riley Mk XXVI Daytona was in a four-car battle early in last year's race, but it eventually was victorious. Forza Motorsport 6 also challenges drivers who download the car to a new Rivals event around Daytona, and the fastest people could win Alpinestars prizes. If you're nostalgic for a classic Daytona racecar, this pack includes Mercury #15 Whistler Radar Cougar XR-7. The V8-powered beast won the IMSA GTO class in the 24-hour event in 1990. It should be fun around the game's longer road courses like Road Atlanta. This collection also has an eclectic mix of vehicles that aren't racecars. The controversial Aztek and the equally-controversial 1996 Subaru SVX take their places beside a lineup that offers drivers three eras of performance cars – a 1967 Sunbeam Tiger, 1974 Toyota Corolla SR5, and 1992 Alfa Romeo Milano Quadrifoglio Verde. The video below shows all of them in action. Race to the Finish Line with the Alpinestars Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6 By Xbox Wire Staff posted on January 27, 2016 at 8:00 am With the racing season set to kick into full gear during this weekend's Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona race, Forza fans now have a chance to get their own taste of endurance racing glory with the Alpinestars Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6, available on Thursday, Jan. 28. Leading off the pack of seven cars is last year's 24 Hours of Daytona winner, the 2015 Ford #02 Chip Ganassi Racing Riley Mk XXVI Daytona Prototype. The prototype will be fielded in this weekend's race, which begins at 2 p.m. EST on Saturday, Jan. 30 and can be viewed live on Fox Sports 1 in the U.S. The Alpinestars Car Pack features six additional cars, each with a unique pedigree all its own. From the 1990 Mercury #15 Whistler Radar Cougar XR-7 – also a competitor in Daytona 24 Hour events of years past – to the inimitable 2005 Pontiac Aztek (famous more for its fictional owner than its performance), this pack has something for every kind of car fan. Forza Motorsport 6 is the only game where players can drive last year's Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona winner on the recently remodeled Daytona International Speedway.

There isn't any overly flashy chrome or decals.
GM doing fine at retaining Pontiac owners
Fri, 28 Oct 2011This isn't the first time we've reported positive news about General Motors retaining former Pontiac owners. Get a few more stories like this latest report from Edmund's Auto Observer, and it will mark an ongoing positive trend for GM. Edmunds.com crunched the numbers to see how well the General is hanging on to customers after shutting out the lights at Pontiac, and it found that nearly 40 percent of Pontiac owners stayed with a vehicle from a General Motors brand.
The numbers are a little lower than an earlier R.L. Polk & Company study, but Edmunds says General Motors is keeping more former Pontiac buyers than it has since 2007. Most are turning to vehicles from Chevrolet, especially during January and February of 2011, when GM incentivized Pontiac owners to stay under the umbrella. Those moves seem to have worked, and 28.1 percent of Pontiac owners trading up made the jump into a Bowtie.
Buyers that have gone elsewhere have largely stayed loyal to Domestic automakers, with Ford picking up the most conquests from Pontiac, with 9.4 percent switching. Toyota and Honda picked up 7.4 percent of the pool of former Pontiac drivers. The numbers are defying any predictions that Pontiac buyers would completely exit the General Motors fold, and have climbed up closer to parity with the retention figures of other GM brands from a 2009 low of only 16 percent retention.
