1960 Pontiac Catalina Package Deal on 2040-cars
Central City, Nebraska, United States
|
Here is a package deal for all you pontiac fans out there!! Two cars for the price of one. The two cars are as follows- White catalina VISTA or four door hardtop. 93k on car. Picked up a few years back out of illonios as a roller. I did find out motor was full of water and junk, trans looks like its full of water too by the fluid color. Nice options on car, outer body good, needs usual floor and trunk work, glass is good. missing drivers door panel. Title in hand. Second car is Starchief sedan. This one is loaded with options as most starchiefs were. This is a western car and is pretty solid. Has been wrecked judging by rear end. This car is also a all original car with 30k on it. Missing tie rod on pass side and worse rust in on drivers side rear where quarter was replaced....poorly, passenger side is beat up. I love 60 pontiacs, have had several in the past and have tons of parts for these cars also. Just need to focus on other things in my life now and you know how it goes. Dont want to sell but cant enjoy them just sitting there not getting any attention either. I can answer more questions over the phone or by email. I work 12 hour shifts so time is short during the week. Weekends are open usually. Yes i know these are 4 door cars but still, in this era they are still cool and affordable. By all means u got a two door or know of one ill trade for a coupe in decent shape. Not holding my breath tho. Have titles for all and extra parts for extra money, including a vintage aluminum offenhauser tri power intake minus carbs and thermostat housing, and a NOS MINT condition Tri Power air cleaner for the 347-389, as well as a complete running 389 out of a different starchief, with trans. Car had 70k miles and ran and drove when pulled two yrs ago, and it ran great, car was too far gone to save. Plan was to put that in the white vista since the original motor was junk. If interested i do have the original block for the vista but cannot claim it is uncracked and useable. I did pull it out for disassembly and it was bad inside. Everything was rusted solid. Can call after 6pm my time(nebraska-central) week days or wait till weekend. Call Tom at 308-750-3571, leave message if no answer and will try to reply to emails soon as i can, so please be patient. THANK YOU and must have a feedback of 7 or more, sorry but too many tire kickers or what not. This is not a game or fantasy ebay!! Its for real so do the same. Buyer responsible for shipping, can store cars for a reasonable amount of time as long as cars are paid for. They are currently stored inside and can remain that way.
Immediate deposit of 500.00 required with remainder payed within 7 days. Will work with serious buyers, like a 50 50 split, for example half paid for up front and half on pick up ect. BUT none is refundable for any reason so be prepared to follow through with transaction.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
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.
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.
