Around 1962 or 63 there were a couple of brothers that talked their dad into buying a black Catalina 421/4 speed for the family car. Their jaw dropped when he came home it a 4 door family car. Guess they weren't planning on that but turned out to be a real "sleeper." I left for the service in 64 and never saw the car again. I do like low visibility sleepers in general as as it tends to not draw attention when passing through small towns. Still miss my 53 Chevy business coupe with no back seat. And then there was the 65 and later 66 Chevy station wagons. Think I will just go have a drink!
