AJ’s Car of the Day: 1973 Pontiac Catalina 400 Coupe

AJ’s Car of the Day: 1973 Pontiac Catalina 400 Coupe

Car: Pontiac Catalina 400 Coupe

Year: 1973

What makes it special: Catalina was part of Pontiac‘s full-sized line from 1950 to 1981. Initially, the name was used strictly to denote hardtop body styles, first appearing in the 1950 Chieftain Eight and DeLuxe Eight lines. In 1959, the Catalina became a separate model, as the “entry-level” full-size Pontiac. In 1971, Catalina and other full-sized Pontiacs were completely redesigned and restyled from the wheels up with long hood/short deck proportions and fuselage styling somewhat similar to Chrysler Corporation’s 1969 full-sized cars, along with a double shell roof for improved roll-over protection and flush pull-up exterior door handles.

What made it famous: Catalina and other 1973 full-sized Pontiacs featured more full-width split grilles along with the now-federally mandated 5 mph front bumper, and revised taillight lenses. Instrument panels continued the “wrap-around” theme but the two round gauges were housed in square pods. Only the regular Catalina models and Safari wagons were offered this year. Catalinas and other full-sized Pontiacs including Bonnevilles and Grand Villes now rode on a common 123.4-inch wheelbaase for sedans and coupes though Safari and Grand Safari wagons continued on their own 127-inch wheelbase. Catalina sedans and coupes came standard with a 350 cubic-inch V8 rated at 150 horsepower with a 170-horsepower 400 2-barrel optional and standard on Safari wagons. Optional engines included a 230-horsepower 400 4-barrel and 250-horsepower 455 4-barrel V8.

Why I would want one: It’s a very nice cruiser, but does have a larger, muscle car feel to it.

Fun fact: The name “Catalina” was first used on the 1950 Chieftain Series 25/27 hardtop, Pontiac’s top trim level package at the time. ( Car shown from Dragone Classic Motorcars )

AJ’s Car of the Day: 1960 Chrysler 300 F Convertible

AJ’s Car of the Day: 1960 Chrysler 300 F Convertible

Car: Chrysler 300 F Convertible

Year: 1960

What makes it special: The dawning era of muscle cars took a turn with the 1960 Chrysler 300F. In the formative years of factory performance, automakers reserved their hottest engines for their largest and usually most expensive models. Early Chrysler muscle cars were best expressed by the stylish and exclusive “letter-series” machines. The first of these was the 1955 C-300 with its 300-bhp Hemi-head V8. The 1960 Chrysler 300F continued the tradition of power and panache with its special trim and a sporty interior that boasted four bucket-type leather seats and a full-length console.

What made it famous: Chrysler specified its most-advanced engines for these image leaders. A dual-quad 413-cid wedge replaced the hemi in the ’59 letter-series. It made the same 380 bhp as the previous year’s standard 392-cid Hemi, but was 100 pounds lighter and simpler to build. For ’60, the 413 gained a radical ram induction system in which each four-barrel carb fed the opposite cylinder bank via 30-inch “outrigger” tubes. The length of the runners was calculated to produce a super-charging effect in the heart of the rpm range. Only the 300F had ram induction standard. Horsepower was 375; optional “short-ram” tubes, which looked the same but differed internally, yielded 400 bhp at 5200 rpm and 465 lb-ft of torque at 3600. Pushbutton TorqueFlite automatic was standard, but a French-built 4-speed manual was optional for just this season, ending up in only a few 300Fs. Chrysler built 964 300F hardtops and 248 convertibles for ’60, a peak year for letter-series performance.

Why I would want one: It’s luxurious, stylish, sporty and muscle all in one gorgeous finned drop top.

Fun fact: The 1960 Chrysler 300F was one of Chrysler’s first muscle cars.
