Yes, the rareness of the original wire wheel hubcaps has been pointed out by the seller.

The sad thing I'm going to put front disc brakes on it so I need to move up to 15" wheels. So I'll end up boxing them since they are on the original option pull-list for the car.

Hi, I just purchased a 64 Catalina 2 door and can’t figure out how to tighten the loose antenna. It’s a manual but it appears there is no nut under the front fender, inside the door hinge, but a “scissor” looking locking mechanism that doesn’t tighten and the antenna swivels around
Thanks

You are lucky it is a 1964 because ALL 1964 Pontiacs I have ever seen have the provisions on the engine to mount a later block mounted starter. Your car will have a transmission mounted starter but the holes are in the block. All later transmissions ( T350-T400 or OD) require a block mounted starter. You do not want to rebuild a "slim jim" trans.
