1968 Pontiac Catalina true survivor

[@johnvillarreal8472]

This was my first car at 16years old . My dad bought it brand new and gave it to me in 1979 It was silver mist with black vinyl top. This car was as smooth as a Cadillac, sure wish I would have kept it.

[@blondie1169]

Absolutely beautiful. My dad had this same Color 68 4 door sedan new. I washed it a hundred times and learned how to drive on this car.327 cu.in.

[@garydalrymple7531]

Beautiful Car . My Uncle had a Yellow one in 1968 . This is nice with optional air and 8 Bolt Wheels . A Rare and Beautiful Car . Should be a musem piece ! I LOVE IT !!!

[@devonvictor3210]

This was my first real car red on red when I was 16 in 1985. What a great car it was and so reliable, cold air and just an absolute joy to drive. Wish I still had it. Love your car!!! You are very lucky to have that!

[@Guvrunner]

[@justinmyslive4108]

when I was a little kid I thought this car was called a "Fuck". my mom, my aunt and I were in the car. my aunt was driving. a car identical to this Catalina pulled out in front of us. my aunt slammed on the brakes and said "Fuck!!!!". I distinctly remember the back end of this car.

beautiful !!

[@duayneveer8229]

wow ! beautiful !

[@paulsheehan8185]

IN CANADA, THE FULL SIZE PONTIACS , WERE LITTLE MORE THAN CHEVYS, THE STRATO CHIEF, WAS A CHEVY BISCAYNE, THE LAURENTIAN, WAS A BEL AIR AND THE PARISIENNE WAS A IMPALA, THE TOP OF THE LINE GRANDPARISIENNE, WAS A CAPRICE. ALL HAD A CHEVY BODYS AND CHEVY DRIVETRAINS.

[@mickangio16]

Actually, I'm not certain but I think in the U.S. the Catalinas had a lot of Chevrolet in them, too. I think that they were on a Chevy chassis but with Pontiac engines and were smaller cars than say a Bonneville. Maybe someone knowledgeable about Pontiacs can comment(?) BTW, I love the car. When he turned on the radio the music sounded like it was coming through the reverb option that was so cool in that period before stereo and FM became common. The reverb became options in some cars under different names but I don't remember their marketing names. I think Pontiac might have been the first- the first that I heard, anyway. My Grandpa had a beautiful '60 Bonneville 2 dr and later a '67 or '8 4 dr Bonneville. He loved his Pontiacs.

[@garydalrymple7531]

I don't know if you sold this car but I would say don't except less then $50,000 . I wish I could Buy it . I love this car !!!

[@shwt121]

...I LOVE THE EIGHT LUG WHEELS ; WISH PONTIAC HAD KEPT THAT GOING INTO THE 80's......THAT PASSENGER DOOR ALSO SOUNDS BRAND-SPANKIN' NEW.

[@Chris-go9ti]

this makes me miss mine

[@krisztianvigh7624]

Az összes oldtimer amerikai autó gyönyörű nem is tudnék választani mert mindegyik szép. Az 50 évektől egészen a 2000 évekig bezárólag.

[@Guvrunner]

The Catalina and the Bonneville were almost the same car in 1968!

[@dennisleporte2327]

Fr---- over the top

[@dadeyeyam]

sweet ride

[@loveisall5520]

I notice someone installed those aluminum wheels. My parents were Pontiac people back then; they had the best dashboards, particularly with that climate control that looked like a radio.

[@mickangio16]

The wheels were factory option and I think '68 might have been the last year for them before disc brakes became standard equipment(?)

[@loveisall5520]

@@mickangio16 I'm well aware that these were factory wheels. Starting in '69, Pontiac went, finally, back to 15" wheels and these were history. Try again.

[@stephengirling7859]

I'm from the UK and would love a Bonneville but it wouldn't fit in my country!

[@Chris-go9ti]

on the front bottom by the turn signal lights . is that chrome? no one could figure out how to open the hood but me.

[@NoRkAlGARV]

chris smith yep chrome

[@robertmcgiverin5298]

That's a pretty sweet looking ride Esa 😍 😊 👌

[@shwt121]

The eight lug wheels were the best.....

[@peterhogan9537]

you said everything works on this car , but the clock is not working.

[@igotatan1]

I may have missed it but what size engine? Thanks, I'm a Pontiac man from way back.

[@mickangio16]

I don't think he said but someone else commented same as I was thinking- 400 2 barrel. I was judging by the single snorkel air cleaner(?) My mom had a 4dr Cat with the 400 2 bbl.

[@morrismckinnon6047]

Doobby's Taxiola! "It's the middle of the night!"

[@shawnmcculley2995]

'68 was last year for 8 lug wheels.

[@shwt121]

Most of them went on the Gran Prix's.

[@shwt121]

Or station wagons..

[@locks65625]

Exactly the same as my 1st car! For sale?😊

[@patricksterling7389]

Nice

[@russianbot2397]

You couldn't even start it so we can listen to the engine?

[@markmalone5384]

Look again: at 2:10 he starts the car... Sounds very smooth. 400 cid 2 barrel engine 265 HP with a 3 speed TH 400 auto transmission. Pay attention there's going to be a test at the end of the class! (lol).

[@shwt121]

WELL, ITS EITHER A ' CATALINA' OR A ' BONNEVILLE'......NOT BOTH ; AND JUDGING BY THE SIZE OF THE REAR TAILLIGHTS , IT APPEARS TO BE A CATALINA. THIS ONE IS IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. YOU HAVE A REAL WINNER, ORIGINAL ONE-OF-A-KIND HERE. CONGRATULATIONS.

[@paulcheek5711]

A true full size 6 passenger car. Not the little pretend 5 passenger cars of today like Chevy Impala...
