1964 Pontiac Catalina, 389 2-BBL , 4 DR. bought in 86 for $250 anmd it wa in fair shape, ran daily 86-88 92-98. 167.000 original miles. got severly sun damaged when it sat for 2 yrs in Utah when I was overseas ( A relative was suppose to not leave it in the sun) . last started and drove in 2007. large family, and had not a dime to spend on my favorite car, only 2 kids still at home, and I want to start to revive my cat.

usually I buy a quart of rustoleum red paint and put a fresh coat on every two years since 2001. in late summer 2016 I was given two incorrectly mixed gallons of latex exterior sage green, well since my budget has been $20 a year, this was a bargain at two gallons for free! (that's 16 more paint jobs!) so I bought a new coil for $18.
