those are nice cars and that looks to be a pretty nice example of one.
the sport wheel's kind of odd for a 4dr car. enjoy it. mike

I swear that looks just like my Grandparents' old car, right down to the compass mounted on the dash (don't think it had the sport wheel though).

Welcome to the Darksiders. We Darksiders love all Pontiacs, but are hooked on the power and style of the Pontiac big cars. That is a nice Bonneville, you will be impressed with the ride and handling. Personally, I love the 4dr hardtops. They look so cool with both side windows down, it is a design that we'll never see anything like it again.
Glad to have ya aboard, Dave

Welcome to the Dark Side it is, i like it and thanks for the comments,i really cant wait to drive the big machine,i want to name it but need to take it out on the Highway first, i also got the original bill of sale protector plate and everything else the old fellow who passed on had in it, So i figure on hanging onto it as the only things not original are tires battery and alternator,and lets not forget that compass lol. i figure if some young fellow got it the motor would be in some chebbie four wheeler and the rest would probably be parted out,So once i have questions on it i will be posting them up,thanks for the answers in advance.

Well i was home for awhile and got to burn a couple of tanks through old bonny, what a blast she runs and drives perfect, let my oldest son drive, he calls her a boat then he turns her on to the street and punch the big machine. And it responds by lighting up the back end,and he just holds her to the floor with a big smile on his face.lol By the time the young fellow drives it home, he aint laughing at old bonny anymore, Now when he stops by he wants to jump in her and take it for a cruise. After he saw how fast it can bury the speedo right off the board.lol Anyways it was great to experience the big machine ride. Have bonny all cleaned up and put away for winter in poll shed,just thought i would share

Another GTO convert???....Thank god that the rest of them continue to have the narrow minded opinion of big cars... Love the gold. It continues to be an uncommon color that attracts attention.
Big cars-Like GTO's...Only MORE!!!!! Now you'll be looking for a GP soon. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
