  • Join in with the Restored Crew as they try to drag out this forgotten 1964 Pontiac Catalina from its resting place of over 40 years now. Attempting to remove this girl from her home in the woods, they dig and see what obstacles await them. Buying this car cheap and somewhat unseen, they uncover what's left of this rusty jewel. Will this be a diamond in the rough, or just rough? Be sure to catch the full video for all the details and adventure along the way.

      Hate to be that guy but everyone that has been baptized is per definition a Christian. As someone who actually have lived several years in a Benedictine monastery I would say that believer is a more accurate term. PAX

    My first vehicle was a 1967 Pontiac Tempest.
    I paid $25 for it, it didn't have an engine or tranny in it.
    Then a couple days later I bought a Chevy 230 6 cyl with a powerglide trans.
    I put it in and got all new fluids installed and was broke, car didn't have a driver's seat so I found a bean bag chair and duct taped the holes and used it for driver's seat for nearly a year.
    Be Blessed.

      Around 1980 or 81, my brother bought a '69 Tempest that had a little bit souped-up engine (I think it was a 389 with mild cam and headers/four barrel).
      He paid a girl $175 for it. When he bought it, he asked the girl "Why was she selling it for only $175 " ?? Her answer, "Well, I never had $175 before" !
      He drove it from Illinois to California and the only issue was - every time he went to start it - he had to crawl under and jiggle the shims on the starter.

    I'd love to see you try to get this one running. The 64 Pontiac is one of my favorites and I love a 4 door even. Even if this thing is so far gone to barely be a parts car, it would be cool if it could run one more time before the few good parts get sold and the rest gets scrapped.

    First car I ever owned was a 1964 Pontiac Catilina convertible. I miss her to this day. I named her "Catherine" and still dream about her. She was maroon with a white convertible top and red interior. V8, too. She was awesome. Bought her in 1973. I'm now 66 years old and miss her to this day.

    I had a thought about when those vehicles are far down in the dirt, like this Pontiac.Why don’t you just shovel dirt down into the holes after the vehicle is jacked up? The boards are an ok idea but they have a good chance of breaking or sagging once the jack is released.
    I’m already looking for the will it start on this old car. Have a great weekend to all.

From piles of rusty medal to a beautiful vehicle that ran down the road drawing stares, smiles and even applause from crowds of onlookers. The mind still has the want to, but the body let's me know very quickly it can't happen again. However nothing can take away the memories of those beautiful cars we produced still running today, even though most are sitting in some one s garage only to be taken out on very special occasions.

I had an old 78 Chevy wrecker and I'd get anything,any vehicle and I was kinda known for it. I'd cut down trees jack em up best the tires down with tire hammer and spoons whatever it took. My point is I eventually put together an assortment of different tools for the trade. Rakes, shovels, handy man jack and chain cum alongs generator and a torch.

    I'd be curious to see if you can get the engine unstuck.

    Honestly ive seen cars this far gone rust wise put back in shape with lots of sheet aluminum, pop rivets, bondo and fiberglass. You'd never know that rain gutter was fiberglass so skillfully shaped or that the perfect crease along the fender is bondo.

    Awww.........that was my first car. My parents bought it used for $600. Sadly I drove it into the ground (I was 16)- but I always wanted to keep it because it was so beautiful. Thanks for saving this one. It's still a beauty.

    Fill that 389 V8 with some marvel mystery oil and let her soak a while. Then see if she'll free up and turn over. Is a shame the old girl is so rusted. Even the dash rusted away. These old Pontiacs had such beautiful interiors and body lines. My Grandparents owned a white 4 door post with red interior. They bought it new and ordered options such as a front power seat and air conditioning. They drove that car for years. Was a wonderful machine! Loved that old cruiser. God bless you guys!

    389 cid,421cid,428cid were engine options for that year Pontiac Catalina,that engine is rough but rebuildable cause it's probably still stock,and worth money to the right old school motor head,my brother had a 60 something big block Pontiac back in the day that would literally fry the back tires,it was scary fast for the time.

      I hear ya. Pontiacs are fun to build because not many build them.
      Oh, by the way, Pontiac only made one size block. Just saying.

      @@jhutch1470 yes sir,seems like they changed the bore,stroke,and maby valve size to change the cubic inch displacement,like small block chevy,it's been a long time and ive forgotten some of what little i knew,remember when you could still find those Chrysler Hemmi in old junk yards in old 4 door and station wagon cars ?,the old days,we weren't worried about cruise control or creature comforts or gas mileage,we just wanted big engines that went fast,a long time ago.

    Try to get the engine to turn over. That would be a heckuva challenge!
