The 2+2 was a special high-performance package offered for the big body, but shorter wheelbase Catalina that was first offered in 1964 for $291.00. Consider this the “big brother” of the GTO. The package consists of bucket seats, a floor mounted shifter, special blend carpeting, and if you checked a few additional boxes, a 421 tri-power V8 backed by a 4-speed manual or 3-speed Hydramatic transmission. A long list of performance options could turn a comfy cruiser into a hot one!
The 2+2 package would continue for several more years in both hardtop and convertible bodies. Today, these cars are among the most sought-after Big Body Muscle Machines ever produced. Production would be a mere 7,998 in its inaugural year, 11,521 in ’65, 6,383 for ’66 and just 1,768 in ’67. Think about it...when was the last time you saw a Pontiac 2+2 up close and in person? This year you find an entire row of them at the MCACN show.
Special Thanks go out to Jack Anderson who coordinated this awesome display, and for bringing this 2 + 2, and to all the owners who are allowing us to host a stellar group of rare Big Body Muscle.
