61 Catalina Ragtop
 

Thought I'd post a couple pics of my 61 Catalina Convertible I finished last summer. It's a documented tri-power T-10 4 speed car. I added the Ventura bucket seat interior and some engine goodies. It's a great driving car. I tried to duplicate a 61 Bristol Blue Catalina I bought new in 61 tri-power 4 speed,
3.42 Saf-T Track. That car had a plain Catalina interior.

Soooo, I dressed this one up a bit.

Thanks for looking. I'm doing another 61 Cat Rag Top this winter, PHS documented 425a (333HP) 4 speed Tradewinds Blue car.

Larry, That is BEAUTIFUL. Great job.

Very nice work. My favorite car of all time. I prefer the HT, but this year/model car has always been at the top of my list...

Beautiful car! Bristol Blue is a great color on '61's.

Nice color.

Nice backdrop, Larry.

Larry, how much of the work did you do yourself?

Can you post any "Before" pictures? Those are the ones that I always enjoy the most.

Thanks.

Beautiful car!

Car looks nice Larry. Is this one staying up north or is it coming to Az?

Thanks for nice comments.
Steve Dunn did body and paint work, Joe Reece and SMS did the interior, I did under the hood detailing and chassis work and detailed many parts plus I paid the other guys.....

I'm attaching pics of before we took the car apart.

Thanks,

Nice ride, the color really did the car justice. I'am doing a 62 catalina ragtop and it is sky mist blue with a matching top, it should be done I hope in about three months , I will post pics. tlkelly

the buckets really set the car apart. Nice work! Ron
