Next is the oddball car of my collection a 69 Catalina (Ventura equipped) 2 seat wagon. This car is in time warp condition with beautiful original paint, utterly untouched mint interior and a time warp under hood and chassis. The car was won new on a TV show in 1968 and was never daily driven and stored in a private airplane hanger since new. I'm the second owner having bought it in 2014.
The car was ordered with a strange option load, standard engine, TH400, AC, power drum brakes and PS, AM radio and the Ventura trim option, AM radio, tinted glass, the lamp group (cornering, underhood and cargo lamps) as well as warning lamps, roof rack, wind deflector, power tailgate window and whitewalls but not the decor group so it has dog dish, cheapo 2 spoke steering wheel and no chrome around the windows. The car has a decidedly "US Forest Service" feel to her.
