Just got back from a little road trip. Found a CCM Catalina. I would appreciate any info anyone has on them. I will post pictures as soon as I clean it up a bit. Thanks!

Nice pictures! The one I have is red and white. So far I have managed to remove the kickstand and find the serial number. It is either from 1964 or 1972.... I will give it a bath and post pictures, then attempt to repaint! ;-)

repainting won't affect negatively value if done properly... I wouldn't say so if it was rare or in pristine condition but it isn't the case so have fun with it!
It's definitely not a 1974. There was no Catalina in the lineup by that time. it was dropped sometime in the late 1960s, being replaced by the Imperial GT. Circa 1964-1965 would be correct.
I only have these pictures....
