    Beautiful wagon! Seller seems to think the Bonneville Safari had a longer wheelbase than the Catalina Safari. Not so...... That's true for the other body styles, but not the wagons.....

    I wish I had jumped onto that one sooner

    I wish I had jumped onto that one sooner :(

    Still looking for one in that price range , I would have certainly done that one over. I would have stripped off the chrome , media blasted it and refinished in the red maroon color that Pontiac used in 62'. I would do a frame off eventually but my 85 year old mother probably would never see it done, so Fresh Paint to match the "Big B" she had and let her take it out for a spin or two :)

    Krash you are correct on that point. This car was well bought, I would have expected the asking price to be much higher. But the 63/64's seem to bring more money. I like it, A/C, tri color interior, even the steering wheel seems to be in decent shape. Those cost a small fortune to have restored.

    Lowest production Pontiac in 1962 (Other than SD cars). This one has been for sale for several months. Was on craigslist for $11,000 obo. All the pics look legit of the car. I would have been all over it if I did not have 3 projects going on right now. Great color combo and A/C

    F-N-A What a car!!
