Vehicle Description
A little known fact about the Pontiac Bonneville nameplate is that
it has a pretty lengthy production history. The Bonneville was
produced from 1958-2005; that's 47 years! Changing shape many times
over the years, with each new generation being a near-complete
restyle, the Bonneville is one model where any pre-1970s iteration
is guaranteed to be a hit.
This Bonneville is a gorgeous example. An older restoration, this
car has gotten the preservation it deserves! The body is finished
in the correct color of Fernando Beige; a color that looks stunning
on this '60s GM. The styling on this car speaks for itself, and
this is a great example of just how substantial two-door cars once
were. While it is showing some age here and there, this is a
perfectly presentable classic ready for your weekend cruises or
local car shows!
The interior is even more beautiful than the exterior! Though all
of the interior colors are a version of brown, they work well with
the exterior color and the interior is oddly charming. There's
something special about an early 1960s classic that hasn't been
overdone and customized; a reminder of the cars that were there but
didn't quite make the highlight reel. The interior has held up
excellently since this car was restored, and you could almost
believe it was installed yesterday!
Under the hood is a correct Pontiac 389 V8 with a tri-power
carburetor setup. This car has been tuned up right and really
moves! You may have heard that tri-powers can be difficult to deal
with, but once you've driven one that is set up right you'll
understand the appeal. As large and unassuming as this Pontiac is,
make no mistake: this is a quick little cruiser. One big alteration
from original has been done, and understandably so. This Pontiac is
fitted with an aftermarket modern air conditioning system to ensure
cool air on a hot day!
If hot rods and muscle cars aren't your thing, but you want to be
able to keep up if need be, this 1961 Pontiac Bonneville would be
an excellent selection. Whether its car shows, weekend cruising, or
simply the occasional drive to the store, this Bonneville fits the
bill.
