Description
When it comes to having the most stylish full-size cars of the 1960s, a strong argument could be made for Pontiac. Compared to its often times stodgy rivals and even its handsome GM cousins, Pontiac just seemed to have the right balance offlash and class. And there was plenty of power under the skin as well, with a roster of strong engines that moved these rolling sculptures with ease.
We are proud to offer this amazing, 12k…
When it comes to having the most stylish full-size cars of the 1960s, a strong argument could be made for Pontiac. Compared to its often times stodgy rivals and even its handsome GM cousins, Pontiac just seemed to have the right balance offlash and class. And there was plenty of power under the skin as well, with a roster of strong engines that moved these rolling sculptures with ease.
We are proud to offer this amazing, 12k mile Bonneville that must be seen and driven. This was Pontiac’s luxury car and to say this amazing example is loaded with options would be an understatement. Highlights include automatic A/C, power windows/seat/antenna and even power vent windows, something you’d usually only see on a Cadillac or other luxury brand car.
And if you’re thinking this Bonnie is as big as a Caddy, you’re not exactly wrong. At 223.5 inches long, this Pontiac is only about an inch shorter in length than a ’68 Caddy Sedan DeVille.
Look closely and you’ll note that the original sheet metal is straight as a (Pontiac) arrow and rock solid. Even the tires are original. Yes, these tires were on this car when the Beatle’s White Album hit the record stores. Note that a set of new tires will be mounted on the car and the old tires will be included fi the buyer so chooses.
The gorgeous Aegena Blue paint as well as the chrome and stainless-steel trim are stunning as well. That styling we were talking about earlier is undeniable in this car with its elegantly sweeping roofline, sculpted body sides and fender skirts.
Inside, the pristine Teal Blue color is a nice complement to the exterior hue, and the high style continues with the wood tone accents on the dash and door panels. The amazing condition of the headliner, dash, door panels and upholstery lend full credence for the low mileage showing onthe odometer, as doesthe inside of the trunk.
Under the long hood is the original 400 cubic-inch, 4-barrel V8 coupled to a three-speed automatic. Underway it’s smooth and quiet as itgets the big Bonneville moving along with little effort. On the highway this car is in its element, providing a plush ride as it eats up the miles with ease.
