June 10, 201015 yr Wow..64 2dr sedan..got be pretty scarce..don't think I've ever seen one of those in person.
June 10, 201015 yr My dad had a 64 Catalina hardtop 2dr when I was small, black with a blue interior, what a car!
June 10, 201015 yr I've had 3 '64s (still got 2), still love this year the best. I, too, have yet to see a '64 2311, tho I've seen every other year from the '60s (even owned a '65). I would LOVE to get one of these as a nice driver one day. This one even has the Y85 Decor moldings- really dresses it up.
June 10, 201015 yr Speaking of big Pontiacs, the current Collectable Automobile has a good article on the '67-70 full size Pontiacs. A couple good photos of a '68 Catalina 2dr sedan..don't think I've ever seen one of those either in person. I always liked the taillights on the '68s, and the pointy nose.
June 10, 201015 yr Thanks for the heads-up. I'll have to pick one up to add to my '61-64 issue. Dad had a '70 Cat- quite the unloved beast ever since about.... 1971. Hope there's the usual gallery of clay rejects in there; I can't wait to see what didn't make the cut for '70. There was a '68 2-dr sedan about 10 minutes from me, but it's 'been gone' about 3 years now. In my book, '68-69s pale compared to the funkadelic '67s. '60s Pontiacs should have stacked lights, and I think there was a way for Pontiac to have kept them with the uberbeak of '68...

There are some clays pictured..they explored some interesting ideas--there is one head on pic that was a proposed front end for '68 or '69 that strangely looks like the '70 Dodge Coronet.. the '67-68 Grand Prix is included in the article. It's the August issue.
June 11, 201015 yr '64s are easy to work on. 389 is a rock-solid, only potential issue is the RHM375.
