The 1960s were a time of elegant car design, defined by lots of chrome, large grilles, and distinctive light assemblies. The 1963 Pontiac Catalina was no different, featuring squared-off body lines, a long hood, and a sleek two-door hardtop silhouette. The Catalina name was initially reserved as a trim designation before becoming a standalone model for Pontiac in 1959. These full-size cars were offered in a variety of body styles. The coupe, as featured here, is the perfect ’60s cruiser, with power to back up the good looks. Powering this Pontiac Catalina is a 389ci (6.4-liter) V8 engine. Our featured car has been converted to include an automatic transmission, perfect for hassle-free cruising. It also features such amenities as power steering and air conditioning. The current owner has detailed that this ’60s coupe has undergone recent maintenance.
This 1963 Pontiac Catalina Coupe features all the hallmarks of classic Pontiac design. The wide but unique split grille sits up front. The quad headlights are stacked and encased in a chrome bezel that seamlessly flows into the bumper. There’s a Super Duty Racing hood scoop to hint at the performance underneath, and the rear features the Pontiac script across the car’s expansive trunk lid. Inside the Catalina you’ll find wide bench seats for the front and rear, while this particular car comes with a radio delete panel. The interior, with its blue and black upholstery, is kept cool thanks to the inclusion of air conditioning.
Under the long hood of this 1963 Pontiac Catalina Coupe is an equally impressive 389ci V8 Tri-Power engine. The powerplant is fed via three two-barrel carburetors with open-element air cleaners, while the intake and exhaust manifolds are factory cast iron units. The engine block is painted in Pontiac Blue, while the valve covers are finished in factory chrome. Although originally sporting a four-speed manual transmission, this Catalina has reportedly been converted with an automatic gearbox. Other conveniences include power steering and power brakes. Last but not least, the current owner reports that maintenance has been kept up to date, with the car receiving a new fuel pump and a replaced rear main seal.

Catalina sounds quite exotic, doesn’t it? Well, it’s a fitting name for Pontiac’s top-of-the-line offering of the '50s and '60s. Initially seen as a trim level for the Chieftain in 1950, the Catalina became its own model line-up by 1959. The range would expand over time to cover coupes, convertibles, hardtops, sedans, and station wagons. So why not experience a slice of Catalina goodness, with this 1962 Pontiac Catalina Convertible? The car has done 75,000 miles and is for sale by its original owner.
Long, sleek and majestic, the Pontiac Catalina was the iconic brand’s full-size offering for over thirty years. Introduced in 1950 as a trim line, then a stand-alone model in 1959, the Catalina would become one of Pontiac’s most popular models. If you’ve always wanted to be the proud owner of a Catalina, because let’s face it, who wouldn’t, we’ve got a 1962 Pontiac Catalina Restomod for your consideration. This car packs a tasty surprise beneath the hood, and is ready to turn heads.
The Pontiac Catalina was Pontiac’s full-size offering between 1950 and 1981. The Catalina was initially a trim offering on the automaker’s Chieftain, before becoming its own nameplate. Pontiac made the Catalina with many body styles, including a sedan, station wagon, convertible and coupe. This 1963 Pontiac Catalina Sport Coupe is probably the sportiest offering of the line-up, and it looks fantastic, having just 38,300 miles on the clock. The current owner reports that the car was recently appraised in June 2024 as well.
One of the most influential cars of the '60s, the GTO was a slap in the face of corporate America. When General Motors banned their auto divisions from going racing, savvy people like Bill Collins, Russ Gee and John Z. DeLorean found a way round it. They realized that they could just offer race-ready street-legal machines to customers, who could then, ahem, do as they pleased with them. Enter the GTO, its name inspired by the legendary Ferrari 250 GTO no less. What better way to enjoy the fruits of their labor than with this first-generation, fully restored 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible that we’ve got for sale right here? Step right up folks, here’s your chance to own an American icon.
In 2002, after a glorious run across four generations, the Pontiac Firebird was due to be put to pasture. Pontiac’s iconic pony car was saying goodbye to the world, although its Camaro sister car would continue for over two more decades. It was a sad year for enthusiasts, given that the Firebird had become quite cult hero. The second generation starred as Jim Rockford’s car in The Rockford Files. Then, the third generation became Knight Rider’s KITT, one of the most-loved cars of the silver screen. You’d be hard-pressed to find another automotive nameplate with a similar level of recognition by the public due to its Hollywood appearances. So, if you want to own a Firebird from the last year of production, and one with some serious power under the hood, check out this 2002 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6. This 116,000-mile car packs quite a wallop and has undergone handling and braking upgrades too.
The Pontiac GTO was born out of sheer grit, a bit of cheekiness, and a desire to circumvent official company rules that seemed ridiculous. By the early 1960s, General Motors had banned their auto divisions from participating in auto racing. This meant that divisions could no longer field machines that could duke it out across America, and fight for who made the fastest car. Of course, this didn’t mean that you couldn’t sell potent, street-legal cars for customers to use to race. This was what John Z. DeLorean, Russ Gee and Bill Collins came up with. The result was the GTO, with the name inspired by Ferrari’s legendary 250 GTO. The GTO ran for five generations before throwing in the towel by 2006. That makes first and second generation GTOs excellent classic cars that can still burn rubber in anger when desired. This 1968 Pontiac GTO is one such car. This 38,000-mile, numbers-matching machine has been restored, with many mechanical parts replaced as well.
Triumph was a well-known British sports car maker for decades. The cars were made by the Standard Motor Company of Coventry, and they offered enthusiastic buyers the typical British roadster experience of the wind in your hair and a pert little sports car to hustle around country roads. Naturally, Americans would get to experience these cars too, as evidenced by this 1962 Triumph TR3A that’s for sale right now. The car reportedly underwent a frame-off restoration in 2015, making it nice and fresh for its new owner to enjoy.
It is often said that life was better in the ʼ80s. Music, clothes, and of course, cars. This 1989 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time.

With the name having been around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.
