Between John V's Shipping Manifest that clearly links the codes 421 with C16 for a two-speed wiper system for a '65 Cat wagon built in the same South Gate, California plant, and Ron Berglund's Build Sheet that shows C16 as the two-speed wiper... I think we have this question successfully answered except for if it perhaps also applied to Star Chief models?
Any additional last-moment insights before we go to press? Thanks for all the positive input. The Pontiac hobby is wealthier and healthier because of it! .

This master order sheet doesn't show the 2 speed wiper in the 2+2 options.
Does show the 2 speed wiper is 421/C16 (not sure where this came from but probably here on PY)

I don't have any photos of the body data plate but I can assure you that my dad's Catalina has the single speed wipers and that dual-speed were optional. This is known as my dad forgot to order such! He did make up his own windshield washer system.
The car is not a 2+2 but is a Catalina with the Ventura trim option. Attached is a photo of the front of the car taken in the summer of 1965. I will check the data plate when I can. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
