There is something timeless about slipping behind the wheel of a classic American coupe and feeling like you own a small piece of freedom. This Catalina carries that quiet charisma that turns routine drives into memorable outings and weekend cruises into conversations. It has lived a single life from new and wears its years with pride, inviting the next owner to continue its story. If you have been searching for an honest 1972 Pontiac two-door hardtop that still presents beautifully and drives as it should, this one-owner Catalina deserves a look.
Step inside and you will find an interior that has been well cared for over the decades. The upholstery is extremely clean, the headliner presents nicely, and the dash shows well with clear gauges. Door panels and trim are tidy and complete, and the cabin retains that original ambience that many collectors prize, while offering the comfort expected for long drives and car-show appearances.
Under the hood is a numbers-matching 400 cubic inch V8 fed by a single 2-barrel carburetor and paired to a Turbo Hydramatic 400 three-speed automatic transmission. The Catalina is equipped with front disc brakes with power assist, power steering, and a solid suspension package of coil springs and shocks front and rear with trailing arms and a sway bar for stable road manners. Cooling, charging, and driveline systems present as functional for enjoyable daily use or touring.
