May 16, 201213 yr Cheers or Jeers: 80,000 Mile 1974 Pontiac Catalina Safari Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/74-Pontiac-Catalina-Safari-Station-Wagon-455-Wagon-Estate-Break-Surf-Cruiser-/160791469266?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item256feb1cd2 This car runs great. It has the big powerful 455 which is a great motor. I have lots of cars with this motor in them right now and they all run great. It was a very reliable engine. This car has an automatic transmission. It just floats down the road. It runs, drives, and shifts like it should. I believe that the miles are original at 80K Miles and I believe it is probably a 1 or 2 Owner car. Just by how clean the car is and how it fires right up and drives I believe the miles. Under the hood is just clean as can be on this car and under carriage is also clean and dry as can be. I just love these big old cars they are a blast to drive and you just don't see to many of them anymore. This is a 1 Owner Car with 80K Original Miles. The previous owner had kept every slip for registation from when it was new until he got rid of it. That is pretty cool to see. The exterior of this car is in great shape. It is a very cool darker metallic red in color. The paint has faded over the years but still has a nice shine to it. The body is very straight on this car and is not all beat up. You look down the sides and it's hard to see a ding or dent anywhere. This car has a very sleek look to it. It has lots of chrome on it which is all in great shape and just shines in the sun. It has a nice set of Factory Rally Wheels that look really good on this car and has a nice set of tires that have plenty of tread left. This is the car you want. These were awesome cars and who wants an SUV or minivan when you can be driving something like this. Options: Automatic Transmission 455 Power Windows Power Sliding Rear Window and Sliding Rear Gate 3rd Row Seating Factory A/C Factory AM/FM Radio The interior is very clean on this car. It has a red interior that goes great with the red exterior. The seats are just in beautiful condition on this car. The front seats show almost no wear and don't have any rips or tears in them anywhere. The back seat and the 3rd Row Hideaway seat are in the great same condition and barely look like they were ever sat in. The carpets except for a little sun fading and a small hole on the drivers side are in really good shape. The back sliding gate is actually called at Clam Shell by how it opens and closes. Everything on the car works. Came with factory power windows, power rear window, sliding rear gate, factory a/c, factory am/fm radio and split bench back seat and hideaway 3rd row seat. This car was loaded for it's day. This car is just a great car classic car that has been well taken care of over the years and it shows. Someone owned this car for a long time and kept it in tip top shape. Don't miss out on this cool classic Station Wagon. I took pictures of every detail of this car so you can get the full picture and know exactly what you are getting. If there is any other questions or any other pictures you would like please let us know.
May 16, 201213 yr I like it. It's no show car, it's something to drive on the weekends without paranoia.
May 16, 201213 yr Price is too high, but I really like this one. Well preserved, and properly equipped without the damned woodgrain! Some light cosmetic restoration, and you have a very nice collectible. Cheers
May 17, 201213 yr You would have to be high to buy this car at that price, further more can they make an attempt at making the car presentable. It is in the details.
