Hey guys, I've been away for quite awhile playing Pappy to my now 6 yr old grandson amongst other retirement things:
A long time family friend called me last spring.....
Tommy, This is Doug, do you like old Catalinas ?
Oh , hell yeah !
Well, here's a number, go get the F____n car !
Me: Oh uh, duh,
Ok....
Tommy, it's a nice car, 35,000 miles,,,,,,
Call Babe's widow,,one of the boys will answer....good luck with getting it.

Great score

Thanks, that's nice knowing.....
Btw. It's a 389 10.25 2 brl. . Not a
421SD. Once home: the pole dancer antenna, Jenna Jamison decals and other assorted decals were GONE !
Only the Original selling dealer decal , I left intact.

I did P U a '58 style Tri-Power man. W carb cores w/ vacuum set up.
I may restore that /dummy the outboard carbs. Any pieces for the Tri Power ?
