1977 Pontiac Catalina

$1800? For this? Car is rough, has almost 300,000 miles on it, and he stood 50 feet away to take the one photo he shows. Ugh.

Also, given the lack of leaves on the trees in the distance, I would say that the photo is not current, not that it matters much as the car can't look much worse.

 

It has a big rust hole in the rear quarter, the front fender looks crusty around the trim, it has a busted headlight cover and the rear bumper's saggy or was bumped.

Also, it might not be the car but I'm feeling a little uneasy in the stomach.

 

Never washed the salt off of it either...

 

LynolsOffice bought it for $300, "mostly for the engine;" he said the original owner always ran Mobil 1 in it.



Dunno why but this time the sad old Pontiac came up I felt like I'm having a minor headache, I'm sure it's from a lack of sleep though. Funny how I felt sick in the stomach the last time.

 

I love when he pulls into his driveway and there are 9 cars total, some on the lawn and more in the garage and driveway.

 

Well for $300 that was a great buy for the 400 4bbl and all the Pontiac V8 parts that are unique to the 77-78 400 powered cars for an engine swap.
