• Pontiac El Catalina, What could have been *LINK*
  • Re: Pontiac El Catalina. I have a nice resin body in the long list of future projects! *NM*
  • Didn't Modelhaus offer that at one time? *NM*
    • Pretty sure they didn't. Glen Ford out of AZ (I think) did a resin, set up for using the AMT Camino for interior and chassis. *NM*
      • That is the one that I have...Actually quite nicely done. Unfortunately, I don't know if he is even casting anymore. I having seen any of his stuff listed for sale in quite some time. *NM*
        • I sort of doubt he’s casting anymore but I’d be happy proven wrong….
  • I have a pretty decent resin one in the queue.... I have previously posted pics of a real one that shows up at quite a few small car shows in the area.... *PIC*
    • I think your pics are of the same car. At least the License Plate is the same. *NM*
  • Ken Yannis (who owns SPI, the company that does concept vehicles including the Cadillac Sixteen) and who was a champion model car builder and Alexander Brothers employee back in the day, had his own built '59 Pontiac Car Pickup. He sometimes shows it at ISCA shows....TIM *NM*
    • Aha! Interesting! *NM*
  • Article is full of holes and misstatements
    • Read somewhere years ago that GM designed ALL of the fullsize cars in '59 to use the same 4-door front doors and base windshield.
