This was a yard about 40 miles from my house back in the early 80S they sold farm equipment and the son was in to cars he had mostly Pontiacs and some Chevys. I had never seen so many Pontiac 2+2 in one place of all different years he even had a 62 black 421 Super Duty and the aluminum hood was in his kitchen. A neighbor friend bought 1964 GTO convertible 389 -3x2 4 spd from him This was just Pontiac heaven but all gone now:cryIMG_7992.jpg

Love those old Pontiac's also. Don't see a dual quad engine too often. Thanks for sharing that, Carmine.

Since I changed my little collection from Chevrolet's to Pontiac's I now have a 60 Ventura, a 61 Ventura, a 61 Cat, a 62 Grand Prix and a 63 Cat, all Tri Power 4 speeds so a 64 Catalina 2+2 / 4 speed is one of the cars that i want next along with a 59 Catalina. Pontiac didnt offer a 4 speed in 59 so the 59 Cat needs to be a Tri Power/ 3 on the column, that will be a tuff one to find. Ive tracked one this winter through several states but hit a wall in Ohio. ODMV vertified to me that the car Im tracking is registered in Ohio, even told me what county but wont tell the owners name.

Phil,
I might do that. The car was originally in WV, the original owner sold it to a dealer who sold it to someone in Ohio. I was always one step behind whatever was happening. Story of my life, always end up somewhere, one step ahead or behind but never instep!
