If you have been watching for a classic Pontiac Catalina to come along, and passed on others thinking something better would come along, you chose wisely.  If you are in the market for a classic Pontiac Catalina, look no further than this beauty.  Even better this classic is a CONVERTIBLE!  Think it can't get any better....... how about only 30, 429 documented  miles on this beauty.  You may never have another chance to purchase a classic Pontiac Catalina Convertible in this condition again!  Keep reading - it get better still!

This car is a looker with the convertible top down or up.... simply stunning.  The official color is Castillion Bronze.  The car has been kept in a garage since it received a fantastic paint job eight years ago, restoring its shine and keeping true to the original color.  It is very clear when you see the car that extra special care has been taken to keep this classic in amazing condition.  This classic will get you plenty of looks and the attention of everyone around town, at work, in your neighborhood, etc.  Even better, you can turn back the clocks and feel like it's the early 1970's all over again, cruising around in the Catalina with the top down.  One lucky buyer will find out, the pictures of this car, don't even do the car justice!

This classic is about 99% original.  The car has been a weekend driver for the majority of its life and that helps to explain its amazing original condition and the mileage.  The car has been entirely owned in North Carolina until eight years ago, when it was purchased by one owner in Maryland.  This Pontiac Catalina Convertible is powered by an original 350 cubic inch engine with 2 barrel carburetor and dual exhaust.  Special options on this care include turbo hydra matic transmission, Rally II Wheels, power steering and air conditioning.  The car is  believed to have matching numbers throughout.  There are no known leaks to report.  The car is currently sitting in a private garage and has just had minor repairs to bring it up to peak running condition.  The engine compartment and undercarriage are very clan, but not professionally detailed.  The title is clear and ready to be transferred to a new owner.

The buyer will also be getting some very nice original documentation!  Included is the sales letter to the original owner from Pontiac congratulating him on his purchase dated May 7, 1971.  Plenty of inspection reports available as well to document the mileage as being accurate as reported.

                                                                                                           EXTERIOR/INTERIOR

As you can tell from the photos, the exterior and interior are exceptional for a 1971 model car.  The paint look great and there is no known bondo on the car.  The Catalina has original Rally II wheels and Uniroyal Tiger Paw M&S P235/7OR 15 tires with only approximately 5,000 miles on them.  The glass, seals, and trim are all original and look to be in fine condition.  The horn, wipers turn signals, lights and locks all work.  The Catalina Convertible had a new soft top and the electric motor replaced before it left North Carolina eight years ago.  It has the original AM/FM stereo with 8 track cassette player (it was working the last time the former owner tried it).  The interior is excellent, the vinyl seats are extremely comfortable and both the front and back seat look like they have hardly had a passenger sitting in them.  One modern addition to the Catalina that works well if you can't find your stash of 8 track cassettes, is the installation of a Pioner CD player mounted under the dash.  This Pioner CD player is believed to be XM satellite capable as well.

                                                                                                               VEHICLE CONDITION:

Not much to say about the vehicle other than check out the pictures and only 30,429 miles!  The paint job on this car is terrific and has just been waxed and detailed inside and out and restores the beauty of this car like the Fountain of Youth.  No rust issues were observed upon inspection by the shop that just completed the minor repairs on the car.  The dash looks great.  The cosmetic and electrical components of the convertible top have been replaced.  What can we say...... This is the nicest classic Catalina we've ever seen and whoever buys this car will be smiling from ear to ear every time they walk into the garage!

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
