At The Auction
Date: Sun, 28 May 2006
From: Chris
“Hi; was at Mecum Car Auction on Saturday. I thought maybe the folks on the site would like to take a look! Sorry if I'm off on the years.
Mecum is kind of a midwest version of Barrett-Jackson. This sale was at the Boone County Fairgrounds, just outside of Belvidere Illinois (east of Rockford).”

From The Track
Date: Mon, 25 Apr 2005 Subject: 1961 Catalina Nostalgia S/S
I bought this car from the original owner with 80K miles. It was a 3 On-The-Tree 389/348 Tri-Power car. I quickly tired of driving a non-synchro 3 speed and went to a 1970 M-22 Muncie.
I had a 1962 421 SD motor sitting in a corner and decided to have some real fun! I stroked the 421 to 466", Crane .615 Solid Roller Cam and Kit, Edelbrock dual quads with aluminum intake and heads, J&E 10:1 pistons, Crower Rods.
I run a stock Pontiac 4:30 Safe-T-Track with Hotchkiss Adjustable trailing links. Headers are custom made by Nunzi of Brooklyn and the clutch and flywheel are competition McCleod.
I REFUSE to put a roll bar in this beautiful car so I run limited events since NHRA isn't crazy about any car running quicker than 11.99 sans roll bar ... although they do cut these nostalgia cars some slack since they are real crowd pleasers.
