Up for auction is our 60 Pontiac Catalina 4-door sedan ALL ORIGINAL SURVIVOR. 1960 was a great year for Pontiac Motor Division, it was their first year for the full grill that was not split in the center. It was also the beginning of the true "wide track" body.
The condition of this car is truly amazing. The body is absolutely 100% rust free and straight as an arrow. The paint is all original with the exception of the front of the hood, it looks like it was spot painted years ago and the match is very good. Im guessing it was due to a scratch, as there was no body work. The rest of the original paint is all very nice and still has a shine. All of the stainless, chrome plating and molding are original and perfect with no pits or scratches. The rear bumper does have a very small dent down low that is hard to notice. All of the glass is original and perfect. Even the windshield is perfect with no chips or wiper blade scratches.
The interior is also all original and has never had any restoration work. The door panels and dash look new. The seats are also very nice with VERY light wear on the drivers side that is almost not noticeable. The floor is the original rubber mat with carpet inserts sewn over the transmission and driveline tunnel. The rubber mats have very little wear with a few small splits. NOS original mats are included with the car if you desire perfect floors. The gauges all look new and all work perfect. Even the "cold" light works. The radio, wipers, horns, signal cancels, heater and lights work perfect. The steering wheels is absolutely perfect with the transparent green clear portion not cracked or faded. The headliner and visors are also nice with no tears.
Under the hood is untouched and all original. I had the starter, generator, carburator and wiper motor rebuilt. Nothing under the hood has ever been spray painted or messed with. The engine runs like a top. Always starts perfect and sounds very nice with no valve or strange noises. It idles smooth, has great power and does not smoke at all. Transmission shifts like new and has clean fluid. Brakes work perfect and dont pull at all. The suspension is tight and smooth. Going over rail road tracks are quiet with no squeaks or rattles. It does have new BFG wide white wall tires with new shocks and a new exhaust system done to factory specs. Sounds quiet like a new 60 Pontiac!
I have owned this car for several years and have really enjoyed owning it. Everywhere I drive it I get thumbs up and everyone always thinks its restored. I have driven it to several large shows and it's always the only car of it's type there. I like being different and unique at car shows and not being one of many, 57 chevys! The survivor trend is getting big, its hard to find cars this original and this nice. There are many "Survivor only" shows where these cars are getting lots of recognition. This is a car that ready to enjoy that is very unique and affordable. Ive been told "too bad its a four door", my response to that is; "This car is perfect as it is, because I can load up my friends and family and we can all go out to dinner, a show or a drive in the mountains together. We have tons of trunk space for our stuff and it makes for a great time and thats what owning a classic car is all about!" If you have questions please call 303 475-4544. I have a clear Colorado title

GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected
Tue, 20 May 2014General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:
1,339,355 - Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia models from the 2009 to 2014 model years; Saturn Outlook models from the 2009 to 2010 model years
General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]
Fri, 26 Aug 2011You don't have to be born in the 1960s or 1970s to be able to recognize the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and the Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit. These old school four-wheeled stars seem to transcend demographics thanks to the miles of film that show the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the jet-black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am performing seemingly impossible stunts.
The folks at Hot Rod magazine are obviously hip to this fact, and they put together a fun video in tribute of the instantly recognizable duo. Hit the jump to watch on as Sam Young and James Smith replace Bo Duke and The Bandit for a bit of dirt-road shenanigans in a pair of otherwise well cared for classics. We're not so sure we'd call it the best chase scene ever, but it sure looks like a lot of fun.
More importantly, which of these two cars would you rather own? Have your say in our poll below.
Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
