- My 1962 Pontiac Catalina project came with a pile of parts to be installed on the car and instead of letting them take up space and completely restoring the car lets get them put on the car so we can enjoy it. This includes fixing a few things along with installing Bonneville interior and a large amount of both interior and exterior trim. This car is NOT for sale! As always, thanks for watching!

KUDOS TO YOU AND DUFF
For helping the shriners...can't say enough
S.M.I.B
Our pleasure!
Anyone who helps you guys deserves a huge hug! Shriners are AWESOME 😎!
Positive comment pinned!
I worked with one, he was my foreman on a huge job. He loved to fcuk with people all the time, it was hilarious and I had to keep a straight face, he had one of the best poker faces... it was just how he kept himself amused.
ppp😊😊😊
Nothing like a few breakfast sandwiches and a couple hours of Mortske to end 7 night shifts. Thanks Mortske for a good start to a few days off!
Our pleasure! Enjoy!
You're useless Pontiac information for the day lol
Of COURSE Mojo likes seeing you get screwed.. it's JOB SECURTY for him.. (not that he's concerned about losing his place at your shop) but still.. I love seeing Mojo get to business in the background doing the real technical time consuming precision work.. What a great guy!! I hope that when I'm his age I'll have a QUARTER of the knowledge and wisdom he does.. Legend.
He's something else
Do you remember the movie "Dogma"? I'm not saying that Mojo is actually God coming back to earth and working on cars with Mortske, but I'm also not not saying that.
@@Jason1975ism Nice!
When I was 10ish I asked an older gentleman that I called grandpa why he locks his glove box when he leaves the car then unlocks it when he gets back in. He said so I can go into the gas station and liquor store and leave you in the car. He then unlocked it and pulled out a .357 snub nose. He lived in a rough part of MPLS most of his life.
Whoa! He had a little buddy with him! 😮😮😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing!
@@carlbernard4197ya a nice little friend to have laying around but I wouldn't give up 2 cents for a shorty. Grandpa was responsible for locking it up with the kid in the car.
when i was 21 my grandfather wanted to junk his car. His car was used for shopping and church only for well of a decade. i had to beg him to let me have it. the ball joints were gone. the car was a 61 Pontiac Ventura. bubble top and with only 1700 miles almost exact. to the car you have. I'm 72 now and it was one of my fondest car memories.
Thanks for sharing!
For future reference. There's a trick I do and will pass along to my fellow compadres. You can do for dry, wavy and extremely warped door panels that won't sit flat and stay flat. Just use Windex or water in a spray bottle. Spray the backside of panel lightly enough to absorb into panel. Then install while moist. As the liquid dries, it will flatten dry back into proper form
I did that (an Old Body Works Guy showed me how to do it) on my first car years ago. A 1957 Chevy 2 door 210. Someone had removed the front ones and threw them into the trunk that leaked water. It worked great.
That makes sense. Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for the tip!
Best episode in months! Your narration was top shelf. "Don't slam the front seat backs! and Don't push both of 'em fwd at the same time!" Such was life for a 7 yr old and his little brother in the back seat of a brand new '55 Bel Air 2HT. Rules were RULES. Especially like your dissection of underdash levers and switches -- real old school engineering that no one appreciated 60 years ago. Thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for supporting Shriners!
My pleasure!
In this episode Mortske rubs up and down on the shaft and reuses the rubber, no wounder his Dad still thinks of him as a kid. LOL🤣😂
pole barn garage would be proud of you. he uses self tapers for everything.
They sure make life easier for certain applications.
I stopped watching PBG because he's a Temu sponsor and Temu is the devil. I can understand wanting a new shop but I have morals for getting my money. Temu is one step away from selling dope.
how is pushing junk of the devil.
i just can't the devil concept. churches push bibles that are wrong ln lots of ways.
@@Jason1975ism
hi me how ya doing. good thank
HEY! Good morning and thumbs UP!! 2 1/2 hour video! Hell yes ! I may need a samich for this one !
before i forget. thank you for the show sir.
Our pleasure!
Regarding the locking glove box. There used to be a thing called a valet key. Which would only unlock the door and start the car so you could lock your trunk and glove box with the other key.
Ahhh yes I forgot about those! Only ever been to a valet lot once in my life!
2:06, I get supper excited when you start a engine on a stand and both Mojo and Duff, and even Tom doesn't get set on fire. A great day in the shop, Stu, you gotta agree...
Dump some blue metal flake in some white single stage and give that roof a quick spray, it would look "really nice" 👌 thanks for the great content, always appreciated !👍👌
My dad used to lose his mind if anyone slammed a door shut , he used to work on them endlessly so you could set them on the latch and gently push, if anyone just grabbed the door and slammed it, there was no place to hide 😂. Great job on that interior 👍🇦🇺
Thanks for sharing!
Just follow Sgt Duff and he will guide the work just fine......getting this hidden gem turned into a shining star
I enjoyed the column swap/rebuild. GM definitely made some parts swapping a true nightmare. I would love to see part 3 cause this thing is just awesome. My old friend Craig Hendrickson from Nevada was a true Pontiac enthusiast and he did build racing engines in the 70s. Too bad he is in the grave, he would have been able to give you useful tips. The Mortske history lesson reminded me of my of him.
There's a few poncho gurus out there yet I imagine.
EVERYTHING’s available for the Pontiac steering column any good old fashioned autoparts store and or Ames Performance Pontiac Parts
Those were great shocks (Monroe magnum ) you discarded
The rock auto spectra are SHIT
A nice built for the Poncho power level 200R4 for that car would be the ticket. You get the better first gear(2.74:1) and the .67:1 overdrive gear. IIRC that has a 3.23:1 rear gear? If so, with the torque of that Pontiac engine should be good enough to shift into overdrive at 45 mph. Usually a 3.42:1 rear gear is teamed up with the 200R4 so it can go into overdrive at 45, the 3.23:1 should be close enough. Since it's a manual there are overdrive options for those too.
Can't wait to see you do the body work snd paint for this car.😎👍
This will make a great summer daily driver for you.😎👍
Just something about seeing this car being restored, and knowing that Pontiac is no longer around. Saving a piece of history.
That Catalina is so cool because you just don't see many anymore.
Well lets not call it restored!
Revived. Rustoted. Reved’ up
@@MortskeRepair You "saved: it. Now it will keep going.
@@MortskeRepair why not
.lol
The time and $ restoring any car is what makes the barn /shed / Garage finds of a near mint example worth big money. As time passes, the finds become more rare, and the effort to restore goes way up. There's the truth about the real value of classics. In the end, it is only worth what someone is willing to pay for them. Cheers Mr. Mortske
I agree 100%!
Mortske, bought a 64 Grand Prix in 1971 with 50,000 original miles. Black on black. 4 spd. 8 lug. $800. Flawless! Them was the days. Never knew how intricate they were in all aspects. You are truly an engineer on this old stuff.
Thanks for sharing!
Heck yeah, another fantastic Monday morning with Mortske.
I'm glad to see you have been watching the DD Speed Shop exterior trim installation videos.
Dd slop shop. 😮
His cars have trim?!?
This is a pretty cool car! Love that it is a true street car! V8 Posi 4 speed rear wheel drive! And it definitely rips good doughnuts 🍩!
That's My Pipe Mortske ! Back in 69 that guy picked me up hitchhiking and I must have left it . I'll send ya my address and pay shipping so you can get it back to me . 👊😤👍
Not sure we can put those in the mail!
@@MortskeRepair 🤭👍Michigan is cool wit dat !
Great to see this getting some love. As a kid these were "winter beaters" and a lot of people ran them to EOL then sold them to the mill for scrap (they paid more than the junkyard and no title requirement). Really enjoying this build a lot! Thanks for making Mondays a little brighter..
Thanks for watching!
Looked to me like the leak was coming from the pinion seal. And I think, these cars are cooler when they show their age. Loved the Mortske Minute.
The Catalina has a great classic look, the Puddin-Blue interior makes it pop! My grandfather was a Mason and Shriner...great memories!
Early with the Puddin burn 😂
You can never truly bond with a vehicle until you pound a few beers in it.
I've bonded with a few then!
I think someone actually christened it by smoking a bowl or two lol
My dad bought a bright red 63 Pontiac tempest that we used for a work vehicle! We hauled so much stuff with it, at the end we could barely make it up the driveway! My dad taught me to drive in the tempest. When I went to drivers ed in 66, we drove a bright red 66 Pontiac Le Mans! My best bud had a 66 lemans with the overhead cam 6. Loved those pontiacs!!!
Thanks for sharing!
My Grandfather was a Shriner in Tucson, Az. He was always involved with the parades. Most of the men I believed were Disabled American Veterans (DAV) as was my Grandfather. Anyway a lot of found memories with him and his “go” cart. Thanks for your support.
Had that crud last month. My joints are still hurting 30 days later. Especially any where I’ve had previous injury. Like getting sick gave me severe arthritis .
And thanks for supporting the Shriners , a worthy organization .. I actually live across the street from the first Shriners children’s hospital in state of La. And maybe the first period .. but I’m not sure about that. It’s also because of them my wife isn’t a lifelong paraplegic .. when she was a kid just like Forest Gump , they gave her new legs , and straightened her right out ..
Enjoyed it as always. Lots of great info.
Thanks for watching!
I had that crud back in November and December. Coughing and horking up phlegm. Head all clogged. Still not fully recovered.
You know the problem with 2 plus hour youtube videos??? Most of em don't have Pontiacs in them! Man, I love that car. Keep it up.
Ya it's sweet I hope someone that can afford to do a nice enough of a restoration on it will buy it.
What a great rig. Same paint color as your dad’s car would look great on that thing. Thanks for supporting the Shriners. Great organization.
Glad to see you doing a little extra on this 1962 Catalina . Can’t wait to see you and Duff running down the road. Thanks for sharing!
💯👍
I think you 'join' the Shriners when you're old enough to be a Shriner.. probably around 70 or so Mortske.. you've got time!
Good to know!
I haven't seen one of those "door handles" since the 90's. Classic
It's a relic!
@@MortskeRepair I'd throw it up on a shelf, might get some use out of it one day. But that's Me. 😂
@@intentsmodzyou never know
🗿💨that 283 sounds like it needs a 55 or 56chev to live in. Came for the Poncho content and stayed for the sbc content. Thanks Mortske 👍
Even a set of 882 casting heads would make her sound better ❤️🧲 imo.. love a sbc👍 maybe port the exhaust too.✌️✌️
That 283 cam could have a 4-7 cylinder swap might check.
That thing you found on the the floor we used to call Mr. Ear or the door handle to an alternate universe and I think the only pellets you'll get in your rear are the ones from someone whilst pheasant hunting 🐾🍺
lol
I spent 37 years in a little dark room with no windows, clicking a knob asking which is better? One or two? Yeah. Thanks for the visual.
You probably got to do that nearly torturous cataract test of blowing air into our eyeballs? I hated that test.
@@marknease1631 Yes 10’s of thousands of times! There is now a much easier way to do it these days. It is called a tonopen. No air puff.
@@docshreck4 Glad we could involve you!
Mortske Mondays !!!! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! Thanks dude. (without the pellets he is Ms. Puddin)
Hiding here from all of the KC superbowl news! Thanks, Mortske, for the distraction.
Our pleasure!
Always look forward to Mortske Monday mornings. Great video has always. Like the old Catalina, like the 283 running. Thanks for all the tips. Have a good week.
Same to you!
Hey my back hurts just watching you do that work......
good to know!
Mortske Monday!
I'm glad to see you're keeping this one. That's such a cool car! Thanks for sharing! 😁👍
Our pleasure!
I did a 68 Tilt Pontiac Firebird column for a customer about 2 months ago. Was a PITA, found out the column was not original from the Pontiac but from an Impala or a Buick and was converted from column shift to floor shift and the column was missing parts. The lower bearing no one. I mean no one had an original style bearing. What I was finding do not fit the column, located a guy that sells parts and made customer bearing housing for over 250.00 (LOL). Yep I ordered it. And the biggest issue, he provided me a Billet specialties wheel and adaptor. The adaptor did not fit the spline shaft as the adaptor was to tall by about 1/4". Sent Billed Specialities a photo of the shaft. They replied (We have never seen a shaft like that on a column, sorry we can't help) HA!
After "Machining" (and I mean with a flat file) down the hub flange enough to actual fit the column everything was GTG.
You are 100% correct on waiting for parts to rebuild a column.
What a headache!
That door handle is a rare collector's item. Special issue I suspect. Pontiac things
I’m glad he didn’t throw it away, I wonder what happened to it 😏
Front pocket find. Right in the pocket..
A peace door handle I do believe.
Was that a CRACK PIPE. I thought you lived in north Dakota not south Dakota
@@jeffstevens3420 that was a marble"quartz" possibly. Rare door handle, you know Jeff. We won't tell.
For the plastic inserts for the trim, try to find a shop that deals with Lawson Products. They make a trim fastener assortment drawer that, if memory serves, has those in the assortment.
Those clips can be over $7 a piece 😮😮😢. Used to work in a body shop and we were always trying to make sure we could save any type of clip because those added up quick!😮😮😢
Best part of Monday, Mortske videos!!!!!
Hey Mort, good morning!
howdy
Remember shining the bench seats so your girl would slide over on a hard right. Lol
Brilliant!
Great team effort guys! Always learn something new!!
Glad to hear it!
Useless fact of the day mortske loves to hear himself talk...MOJO needs his own channel that would be fun to watch.
You must like it if you keep returning!
Smoke a bowl pass it around 😮
Kroil and knipex are signs of a professional mechanic or one that's at least been around a long time. Us old guys know. We learned from years of experience of what's good.
I agree with the silver paint job idea. That would look really good. That blue interior would absolutely look killer then.
I had a 70 GTO with the 400. That motor was wicked good. Dig your Pontiac!
Thanks for sharing!
Remember Kids: Dont toke on your door handle
Oops wrong video I thought you were puddin.
That's quite the grill collection! Thanks for the video, I always look forward to Monday mornings and hanging out with you and Duff. Later!
Beautiful car! Mickey Thompson would be proud!
You should start another channel, movie reviews, a la Mystery Science Theater 3000! Great video. I have a soft spot for Pontiacs!!
Noted!
Honestly... I knew very little, if any, Morse code BUT, after that "lesson" MoJo gave us... I feel like I could easily carry on a conversation with anyone communicating in that manner! 🤣 Gotta love & treasure ol' MoJo though! 💙🙏🏼
Excellent!
Always enjoy a new video of you and duff. We don't care about you being sick as long as the videos keep coming. 😊 BTW. Those knipex pliers work great. Much better grip than basic chanel locks.
Used Knipex pliers many times for difficult stuff. Many times were better than using a crescent wrench 🔧 😊😊😊
Good to know!
That one's a keeper for sure
Liked the shop talk between Mojo and you.
just a note since you have noticed. The firewall plates are unique to Standard shift and Normal/ floor shift automatic.
Makes sense
I'm certain that between the 61-62 and the 63-64 models there are differences in things like Steering columns do to the new Government standards and newer switches and such. Never had any issues swapping 63-64 around. It's also a wise idea to chain down the drivers side of the engine. Limit it to about a half of an inch travel. If you do not. You risk tearing the motor mounts and breaking the transmission IE cracking the case or snapping of an ear or two. @@MortskeRepair
Thanks for the info@@1gatomon
GOLD with the blue seats.
Oem gold / pearl white roof
Took me till Wednesday to finish this one, not complaining. I really like how you “finish” these cars. If it was all restored and shiny, A person would not be able to take his dog down to the river or swing by the tavern for a cold one and a game of pool. The lines on these 60’s cars…I mean, like rolling art. I love the windshield pillars, that curve.
dang right!
Some of the cars made in the 60's had really cool looking interior and Pontiac seemed to have some of the best.
About 20 years ago my Dad inherited his uncles 64 2-door Catalina. He ordered the car new.
The exterior was kind of a silverish green color, and it had green interior too. Similar to your blue seats, it had
three different colors of green. I love the look... His uncle had the dealer put the really thick clear seat covers on it
before he picked it up. I swear those things were 1/4 inch thick. It still had the matching factory floormats too.
The car had been garaged since day one. It had never been wrecked and still had 100% original paint.
The only flaw the car had was a really small ding on the driver side quarter panel...
It didn't run like yours though LOL... The 400 in your car sounds sweet and runs hard when you give it all the beans.
I was really surprised to see how good it ran in the video. I really like this car...
gorgeous cars!
Mortske and Duff... entertaiment now!!! Thanks my friend... great show...
Cool rig! Appreciate the Mortske Monday. Thank you🐾🍺
You couldn't miss meeting a Pontiac with that iconic grill nose. I think it was in 1969 they introduced that endura rubber nose which was supposed to be able to take a parallel parking tap without damage. Love those old Wide Tracks.
Watching you with that big old boat around in the the last video was all the reason anyone needs to keep it the look on your face 100% pure doing it for dale 😂
Good afternoon from Cape Cod 🦈 all the little nitpicking things is what takes time. The Pontiac certainly does look a whole lot better with the attention you gave it. I would have liked to go for a ride, thanks NAPA Todd 😂 the 283 sounds good. Keep up the great work and the awesome content 👍✌️🇺🇲
Just like a 62 GP an uncle had, very much appreciated this video!
Thanks for sharing!
That's one cool looking old Poncho Mortske! Nice grab!
Love the sixties cars great memories!
My dad, born 1939, who passed away in 1986, use to yell at me as a kid, about slamming the car doors. Now I'm 61, and this video made me remember this.
Thanks for sharing!
My brother had one of those in 1970....commuted with him to college in it...they are huge. Got about 3 miles to the gallon as I recall...but then gas was $0.28 a gallon.
Thanks for sharing!
Really diggin the Catalina & that monster Newport in the back shadow
You're killin me Mortske....HAHA. All this beautiful Catalina content has me messing with my 62 Convertible and making parts lists that I'm surely not gonna be able to afford. I'm sure my kids will be fine without college!! Lol. Love this car and keep those Catalina videos coming!
Right on!
Good thing you've been watching D&D Speed Shop really learning how to adapt getting that shock in its new home. lol Dual Point Distributors extend the Spark range, by having one set spank and the other set soon after.
Nice to see the old cars
Duff hauled ass when that sbc fired!!!!😂😂😂😂
You can imagine how that must sound to him. Dog's hearing is much more sensitive than ours! 😮😮😊
As a past potentate of Moolah Shrine St. Louis, I wanted to say thanks for your support and nice plug.
We would love to have you as a member, understand you are busy. I know several busy business owners who said they have more money than time and joined. They are all some of the best Shiners I know. Maybe, someday you can join us in all of the fun and world's greatest charitable organizations.
Thanks for your support!!!
My pleasure
Morski monday,they are the best you made my day that you and Puddin will be at the lone star round up since I live near by hope to make it. Not the best health but I promise to try.thank so much for the vidios.
When I watch these videos, 60% of the time I learn something every time.
Glad to hear it!
God bless you for having so much patience with Mojo on this video.......
Man, I’m pretty sure that thing is even the same color as the one I had. Swapped in a seat out of a 65? Pontiac. Bolted right up. Huge improvement. If you stop working on it right now, I’ll come and get it.
That fender cover is friggin awesome
You better get one!
@@MortskeRepair trust me I really wish I could 😞
Cool truck. Endless Possibilities! Solid too. Biig bonus!! 😊 I ll be watching!! 😊😊.
I do understand the trim pain. It sure makes old girl look sharp. Silver with the tri- blue interior is a👍. Can’t wait for the next one on the Pontiac.
You and me both!
Love this car coming back to life again. It's taken 2 days to watch it all. I'm sick as hell, yay. First time in years I've called in to work.
get well soon!
You say it sucks getting old, I wish I was that old Mortske LOL.
someday!
That 36 truck looks so Nasty! I think they Such a Cool Hot rod truck! That body style is one of the Best!
The Catalina Wine Mixer Fixer Upper! Letttttttssssss gooooooo!
