Purchased at a West New York Pontiac Dealership by a distant relative in the Summer of 1963, this two-door "Gulfstream-Aqua" Catalina came my way 15 years later, as I began my Senior year in High School. As soon as I got the keys, I went to work...
This car was featured as "Hot Rod of the Week" on the HotRodders.com website back in March 2001.
	This particular car came from the factory equipped with the "low-end" package: 389 cubic inch engine, 2 barrel carb. 3-speed Hydramatic Transmission Power-Steering, Manual Brakes Bench Seats (no seat-belts) AM Radio; No Air Conditioning No Windshield Washer Crank-Down Windows; No Tinted Glass Anyway, the steering wheel and dash had some nice chrome!
The 1964 Catalina, Grand Prix and Bonneville all shared a unique style and appearance. The "Boomerang" tail-lights were their trademark feature.   Some aspects of this body style (such as the front grille and headlight arrangement) were carried over to the GTO, Tempest and Lemans in 1965.
