The Pontiac Catalina is a full-size, junior series automobile produced by Pontiac from 1950 to 1981. Initially, the name was a trim line on hardtop body styles, first appearing in the 1950 Chieftain Eight and DeLuxe Eight lines. In 1959, it became a separate model as the "entry-level" full-size Pontiac.[1]
The Catalina was Pontiac's most popular model, available in multiple body styles, and served as the donor platform for the popular Pontiac Grand Prix, Pontiac 2+2, Pontiac Ventura, and the Pontiac Safari station wagon.
When the Pontiac Tempest was introduced in 1964, lessons learned from the Catalina's introduction of the Grand Prix led to the introduction of the Pontiac GTO, to include the 389 cu in (6.4 L) Pontiac V8.
The 1961 full-sized Pontiacs were completely restyled with more squared-off bodylines, the reintroduction of the split grille first seen in 1959 and dropped for 1960 and an all-new Torque-Box perimeter frame with side rails replacing the "X" frame chassis used since 1958. The new frame not only provides greater side-impact protection than the "X" design but also improves interior roominess.[1]
The distinctive protruding grille made its appearance on all Pontiac products during the early 1960s, and was a modern revival of a similar appearance on Pontiac products during the 1930s and early 1940s, as demonstrated on the Pontiac Torpedo.
Rooflines are more squared off on four-door models with the six-window styling dropped on pillared sedans and wider C-pillars with flat rear windows on four-door hardtops. A revised version of the 1959-60 "bubbletop" roof was used on two-door hardtops. Wrap-around windshields were dropped in favor of flatter glasswork for improved entry and exit to the front seat.[1]
The new body is somewhat smaller and lighter than the 1960 model with the wheelbase down three inches (76 mm) to 119, overall length reduced by the same to 210 in (5,300 mm) and width dropping nearly two inches to 78.2 from 80 in (2,032.0 mm) 1960. The front and rear track of the 1961-62 Pontiac was reduced to 62.5 in (1,590 mm) front and rear. The 1961 Pontiac was advertised as "all Pontiac...on a new wide track."
Most regular engine and transmission offerings were carried over from 1961 with the 389 cu in (6.4 L) Trophy V8, ranging in power ratings from 215 hp (160 kW) to 348 hp (260 kW). A small number of 1962 Catalinas and other Pontiacs were built with a "non-streetable" 421 cu in (6.9 L) Super Duty V8 with two four-barrel carburetors and 405 hp (302 kW), as a US$2,250 option (when the base Catalina listed at US$2,725),[9] along with various "over the counter" performance options offered by Pontiac including aluminum bumpers and even lighter frames with drilled holes (which were dubbed the "Swiss cheese" frames). - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Pontiac was my GM car. Im a Ford guy but a 76 Trans Am was my first new car. 6700 dollars September 21 1975. I kept that car for 18 years and it still looked almost as good as new when I sold it.
1962 I was a sixteen year old who could FINALLY drive. I was head over heals for the "new" Pontiacs. Looking futuristic with those 8 lug alloy wheels and that huge 421 engine. I did NOT get a new one for my Birthday - like I had wished for. But a buddy's mom got a new white one and we got to ride in it from time to time - serious fun. Chris, you've brought my memories into the spotlight with this bright red example - fine job. Thanks for sharing!
I think the track ones had a swiss cheese chassis.
@@jameslarosa2396 It was the frame that was referred to as swiss cheese and those cars were some of the rare and legendary Super Duty editions, I love Pontiacs too.
Love those old Pontiacs!
Should have bought the 61 Tempest 4 speed drag car when I had the chance!
@@kevinclemence4661 I passed on a 1963 Tempest back in 1981 because I thought it looked too "old man-ish".... I could kick myself. ugh!
This one looks really nice. I appreciate when you tell us you made a mistake, and give us a clue on what not to do. Thanks again.
This kit has always been great. I don't care much for Pontiac 8 lug wheels, but nice addition. Great they added everything into one kit. Was always hoping they do a Grand Prix off this tooling.
Yes! More Pontiacs Please! Thanks for the vid!
I love GM vehicles
You make every build seem so simple and smooth .
This Catalina came out great.
That is one sweet looking Catalina! Awesome details! Love the coloring!
Yeah nice ! Way to go Round2. I like that the 3-in-one was preserved so you can make the car the way you want it. I love the light grill too.
What s cool kit Chris! I love those old Pontiacs! Your version turned out sweet! 😎👍
Excellent job! I love the tri-color interior.
Interesting tutorial on masking / painting the seats.
You know Chris I always appreciate your videos because you always keep it fun!
Keep on making great content, stay safe & happy. And we'll see you in the next video!
Great video. Love the Factory drag cars.
Very nicely done. This Pontiac has been a favorite of mine since its very first release back in the 90s.
My most recent build of it(1962 Daytona 500 winner) was probably the 8th or 9th time I built it.
Very cool kit .
Awesome finish.
Full watch and share.
Big like 👍
Mike .
Nice touch on style.
Better than most modelers.
Really.
Not every modeler cares to attend competitions.
Most of us do it for good fun in the privacy of our homes.
Or....we build about half of it, life entervines, & we do or don't pick it back up later. Ain't America privledges grand. ❤😎
Keep up the good work.
I've never taken a model to a show in my life either, but I do enjoy getting to the shows I can and seeing all the great work by others.
@@hpiguy for those of us whom have other matters in life more pressing, youtube & your own contributions help to keep us informed & up to date.
I like how you introduce both new pruducts & various common ( less expenssive ) alternatives.
Thank you.
That new grill is the GP grill i love it.!!
I especially like your Drag racing builds, more please! I like your attitude and style. I REALLY like the music you play as background.
Just got my copy and because you I am looking forward build it thank you
Very nice build. The three tone interior is great. Wonderful work on a wonderful kit. Round 2 has done a great job with this re-issue. New parts, great decals, and sweet tires. Thanks for sharing.
I cant believe you didnt this engine pontiac blue/green!! No, I dont care, love your videos, will be getting this kit kit love it! Another AWESOME VIDEO, THANK YOU!!!
Beautiful mate👍
Nice preview and build up. Just needs a set of 15" big & like Cragar or Torque Thrusts wheels and tires. Round 2 should sell them separately as Hop up parts. 😎
They are great cars back then the good days are gone they are hard to find I want a model😊
nice build---really like the three color interior--friends mom had a four door 62 cant remember if it was a Bonneville or Catalina that was white with the blue interior---think it was three shades of blue but cant remember exactly---the center may have been either white or silver but do remember I thought it was the neatest interior I had ever seen
Great detail work as usual Chris! I just love those eight lug wheels and the transparent steering wheel, outstanding!
Great job! That's always been a nice kit.
Wow..!! I love this kit..!! Also, I can't believe how many xtra parts come with it..!! Always looking for assorted parts to build a better/different model than the usual. Really cool. Thanks again for another great video and build-up.
Wow that's a awesome car SCREAMS AWB GASSER
Good looking build.
Love your Pontiac Catalina!❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
May have to get one! Nice build sir!
Very nice work Chris. Looks fantastic..👍
Wow that's car looks awesome. Great job.
Really great build up of a Really great kit
Great job .I got the older 1962 model from my brother .already built .so guess that's a repop..thanks for sharing
Great build. I like the new grille. Seems to me that it comes from the new 1962 Grand Prix.
I had one of the earlier releases of this car, the Custom version that came out in the early 2000s. I didn't like the choice of wheels that car came with and the decal sheet comprised only three license plates, so I'm liking the look of this reissue. Other than that it was a very well detailed and really nice kit to build.
Looks great Chris! One of my favorite Pontiacs. Love the decals. Thanks!😎
There is a 62 Pontiac sedan currently competing in NHRA Stock. It is a 421 with an automatic trans. It runs about 11.20's.
What is that rubbery tool that you use to press down the masking tape with?
Nice!
Wish it had the 421 fender emblems molded in or at least 421 fender emblem decals! Would be great
About a week ago I stumbled across your videos and subscribed outstanding. Love this channel! Keep up the great work and thanks for all your patience and your time. Have a quick question. Have you done one of the newer kits that a 3-in-1 into the NASCAR versions? Just curious. And by the way, you've got me back into building NASCAR models. Although I like to kick bash stock kits, I haven't done one in over 10 years.
As an old school model builder from long ago, I appreciate a lot of your videos. What I also appreciate is your musical selection. Have you posted links to what plays on as you're busy assembling? Thanks.
They are in the video description. He uses the copyright free music from CZcams.
@@MPMeterman Excellent. Thanks!
👍👍
Do you use a Dehydrator to set our paint ?? Oh Great Job Have Fun
My mom had one, many years ago. Cool ship.
When you were going over the parts, the comments "all kinds of small lines" scared me a bit. Is this a kit for more advanced builders? I've only got about 5 builds under my belt at this point.
I love that decal scheme, Tin Indian. Awesome job, Chris! What brand of 3/4 masking inch tape are you using? I'm asking about the tape you're using to keep a straight edge on the body chrome.
❤ IT ! . L😮😅😊K"$ GRRR88T BROTH"R !!! .. .. . 🤠
