awesome find! I'm starting to get into those Pontiacs. What are his plans for it? Restoration or preservation?

Jude,
You say he's stalked it since '92. Did he finally get a chance to bring it home?

Cool ol Ponch! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

We saw something similar Sunday. Driving down Grand Blvd. just North of SLU Med. Ctr. in St. Louis it was parked along side the street.
8 lug wheels, etc, but it had too many doors! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif

Thats pretty big money for a new 63 Pontiac, nice find

Re: '63 Catalina 421 yard find
 

WOW. So did he finally get it?

Re: '63 Catalina 421 yard find
 

Yes, he did get it. For the 1st time in it's life it's inside.
Unsure of his plans to keep or sell, but I'll see the car in person tomorrow & have a chance to discuss it with him.
