Default Some rare & cool 63 SD Catalina's

Two 63 SD Aluminum front end Catalinas, belonging to pontiaccollector. To see live action & hear the open exhaust, go to youtube to see the video, search: Full Size Pontiac Show at Tri-Power Automotive There are some very cool big cars in the short video so watch the whole thing.
The Light Blue car can be seen at the end of the video, I only got it into 3rd gear before I ran out of room to turn in. I should have done a drive by & got it into 4th but the road has a sweeping turn & this car is not set up for cornering. Turn up the volume & you can hear me rolling into the throttle in 1st gear, the carbs can be heard going wide open over the open exhaust. It was a very entertaining experience & I plan on doing it many more times in the future. Also notice how quickly the car accelerates & I was taking it easy, letting off the throttle on each shift, check out the front end rise. Anyone who knows these cars & has driven a stickshift has broken the weak trans mounts.
These two cars will be at the Indian Uprising show in Saint Charles, parked inside of course.
