The Pontiac Catalina is an automobile which was part of Pontiac's full-sized line from 1950 to 1981. Initially, the name was used strictly to denote hardtop body styles, first appearing in the 1950 Chieftain Eight and Deluxe Eight lines. In 1959, the Catalina became a separate model, as the 'entry-level' full-size Pontiac.For 1960, Catalina and other Pontiacs received a minor facelift from the '59 body with a new full-width horizontal bar grille similar to the 1930s Cord replacing 1959's split grill, but only for 1960, and round taillights. Body styles and drive-train offerings were unchanged from 1959. New to the option list was a "Sportable Transistor" radio that could be used in the car in place of the regular "in-dash" radio or removed from the car for use as a portable with battery power. Also new for 1960 were the optional "eight lug" aluminum wheels with integral brake drums that not only enhanced the car's looks but also provided improved stopping power. Another popular option for performance enthusiasts was the "Safe-T-Track" limited slip differential. In the engine compartment the gusher type (water injection over the exhaust valves- reverse flow type) cooling system was replaced by a conventional V8 cooling system. Turn Signals were standard, while the A/C was $430 and padded dash was $19.MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to offer yet another gorgeous 1960 Pontiac Catalina.
