1961 Pontiac Catalina Hardtop on 2040-cars
Lincoln, Nebraska, United States
|
A very solid, excellent condition dream from Nebraska! I became the 3rd owner in 2007. A true hard top, heavy pillar up from the frame to window level, see picture. Powered by a strong 389 V8 engine with 69,000 miles. Has a new timing chain, starter rebuilt and fuel filter.
A new coat of Bahama Blue on hardtop and Bixmin Blue on the bottom (similar to Robin egg blue). Car starts, runs, drives. Invested in extra parts; water fall grill and radio, these rare items were found. Tires near new. This car has been garaged to keep deterioration to a minimum. New engine, transmission was rebuilt in 1998. Power brake system masters to wheel cylinders restored in 2002. Power brakes, power steering. All glass intact, no cracks. Dash has minor cracks from sun/heat. Nice interior, seats normal wear and tear. Not many of these cars around, a real beauty. This car is being sold as is, with no warranty expressed or implied verbal or written. If you are having the car shipped, payment by cashier's check or Paypal must be cleared before car ships, and all shipping arrangements and payments for shipping must be made by winning bidder to shipping agent, no exception. I am an honest seller and expect the same of any bidder. Please email with any questions, thanks for looking! |

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero
Fri, 26 Oct 2012At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."
