@kenmtb Thanks, glad you like it.

How are they on gas cause I saw one in my town for sale and I want it hardcore.

[boots235]

@btemplr4 It's hard to say about gas mileage...maybe 10-15 if everything is tuned right. It has a high compression head (for it's day) and runs much better on premium gas.

AS i SAID BEFORE MY FATHER HAD ONE AND WE TOWED AN 8 BY 40 ANDERSON MOBILE HOME FROM DELAWARE TO FLORIDA. OUR 53 PONTIAC WAS YELLOW. I REMEMBER THE HOOD ORNIMATE. I ALSO REMEMBER THE SEGERATION COLORED ONLY SIGN AT A WATERFOUNTAIN IN GEORGIA BACK IN 1957.

I will sell my 1953 Coupe Catalina with same low milage Orig.$12,000 FIRM YourSedan looks great! TKS

Beautiful car! I wouldn't be at all surprised if the 64K is original--especially with Hydra-Matic instructions still in place. Beats a 100 point restoration any day!

What a neat car! I love to see those old cars in such good condition and running so well. Friends of mine had a very similar '53, and I always enjoyed riding in it.
