1963 Pontiac Catalina full front end suspension rebuild

[Armondo cerna]

I want to do a front end rebuild but the parts are hard to find for a 1963 Pontiac Catalina what other cars are interchangeable that I could buy parts from

Kanter has a complete front end kit. OPGI and Ames also carrys these parts.

Frosty, thats a reallly good price for a whole front end kit, would it fit a 64 ?

i did email ames and they dont have a 64 kit, they would sell me all the parts but not as cheap as this Kanter kit for a 63

Kiwi, it should. The third generation Bonneville and Catalina ran from ‘61 to ‘64.

FWIW;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               We did a full suspension overhaul on the '63 TEMPEST with a KANTER kit over 20 years ago and everything is still going strong.

this front end kit is like 300 notes cheaper than ames quoted me and my only concern was if it would fit my 64
