Recently I had an eye-opening close call with my 1973 VW that got me to think that as long as I was going to drive a classic, I want a bigger, safer classic (and one that gets up to speed on the highway). There is a 1966 4 door Catalina with a 4-bbl. carb, 389 CID motor, and the legendary 400 trans for sale nearby. It sounds to me like a great car, but before I make go and offer, I would like a little input from some Pontiac experts.
I know what to look for when buying a volkswagen, but not a Tin Indian, so if anybody has tips on what to look for, they would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

VW has been one of the reliable and solid German cars that ever hit the road! I think it is a good car too have especially if it is a classic.
