This is a an original, nmolested survivor car. Everything is exactly as it was new. The car runs and drives beautifully. There are no issues. The interior is near perfect. It has 2 seam splits on the front seat, ther than that it is perfect. The car is very straight and rock solid. The only rust is 2 very small areas behind 1 wheel and in front of another wheel. Everything works on the car, he A/C is cold, he cruise works, ven the original radio works. I recently spent over $800 on maintenance. It has a new water pump, lternator, elts, oses, nd shocks. The brakes and tires are excellent. This Catalina does have the 400 motor and runs very strong and smooth. You really could drive this car across country. The triple red color scheme is pretty unusual. The car does have the original paint. The vinyl top appears to be a replacement, am not sure about that. The car also has a brand new windshield. I doubt you could find a more original Catalina than this one. With only 43000 miles, he car is worth the money. I am selling this car on a No Reserve auction. Bid to win! You can very easily drive this car home! Please call me with any questions. My name is Randy and my cell is 308-830-1492. I will not be checking email.
