Location:
Aurora, IL
Description:
1961 Pontiac Catalina Delete SD 389 Tri Power , T10 4 speed Can't be many of these ever made with these options------that is , no options, known as a "Delete" car. Super Duty 389 w'solid lifters, tri power with it's unique air cleaner (no snorkels w'solid lifters). Correct sump, cast iron exhaust headers, intake manifold, carbs, harmonic balancer, heads, block, upper water neck, dist, etc. Only mod I can think of is an electric fuel pump was fitted. Also have separate air filters for show. 4 speed. Engine fires up easily and runs great with nice oil pressure. Very docile just running on the center carb. Press the other two into action and things get busy. With the full exhaust hooked up it is actually very quiet. Pull the plugs and it ain't! Clutch feels good. Brakes stop well (within reason) and car drives very nice. No issues. Beautiful body, solid original floors, just what you dream of finding. It was a California car and has never been rusted. At present it has one small blister on the driver's door, it is still a good rock solid car. See photos. Original interior in very nice shape. Some patina, yes, but pretty remarkable, in my opinion, for being original. It has an added oil pressure and water temp gauge. Glass is all good. Trim is all good. Again, some patina, but it looks great. Paint is over 30 years old but still looks pretty darn nice with a bit of wax. I'd guess it's "Good Driver" level. I love the overall even patina of this car. Just so nice. I see no signs of previous rust repair. Car comes with a second set of rear wheels with Goodyear Blue Streak Dragway Stock tires. Also a set of narrow front tires. Yes, it was a drag car in it's early life. I'll answer questions best I can. Thanks for looking!
