Re: 1961 Pontiac Catalina project
Wonder if that is the original color combo, normally the lighter color would be on top. Looks great though

Re: 1961 Pontiac Catalina project
NICE, I have the CANADIAN version of that called Parisienne. Body isn't as nice and it needs some work, but we believe it's original BLACK paint with the red interior. And CANADIAN cars came with CHEVY drivelines. Mine has a 409/425++ and 4sp.

Re: 1961 Pontiac Catalina project
I have been told that the Canadian versions that came with chevrolet motors also shared the X frame with chevrolet. Can you tell me if this is true or not? I really don't know these canadian cars are new to me.

Re: 1961 Pontiac Catalina project
YES this is true. The Canadian cars car basically Implala with Pontiac bodies. So say this 1961 PONTIAC would have came with a 283 or 348 as I do not think 409 was available to the Canadian Pontiacs.
