Vehicle Description
Pontiac's fortunes immediately rose with the appointment of a young
Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen to division president. The champion of
the exciting and expensive limited-production Bonneville of 1957
and the revolutionary "Wide Track" models of 1959, Knudsen set
Pontiac onto a performance direction that continued to gain
momentum under the watch of subsequent division heads "Pete" Estes
and John DeLorean. Repositioned as a unique series in 1958, the
Bonneville nameplate stood continuously for upscale presence,
luxury and power as a Pontiac mainstay and best-seller through
2005. This 1967 Pontiac Bonneville six-passenger station wagon is a
former Pontiac-Oakland Club International show winner with a 2008
First in Class award to its credit. Part of the Mile-High
Collection and meticulously maintained since 2015, this Bonneville
station wagon is one of just 6,771 produced for 1967. Striking in
two-tone blue paintwork with an inviting blue cloth and vinyl
interior, the Bonneville is a robust performer with a rebuilt 400ci
engine, sporting a "400-4" open-element chrome air cleaner and
mated to a GM 700R4 overdrive automatic transmission that unlocks
additional performance and extended freeway-cruising capabilities.
A standard third-row folding seat, power rear tailgate window and
carpeted load provide a decidedly upscale feel. Prior to
acquisition by in 2015, the Bonneville also received a
front-suspension rebuild, ensuring nice road manners. Pontiac's
famed 8-lug alloy wheels, with integral brake drums, are another
highly desirable 1960s Pontiac performance touch, as is the
hood-mounted tachometer. The original dealer-issued Protect-O-Plate
is included with the sale of this eye-catching Pontiac Bonneville
station wagon. From the Mile-High Collection.
