If you aren't just stuck to getting a Bonneville, I know where you can get a 1990 Grand Prix Turbo that from what I have heard is in pretty good shape for just $700. Then you can spend $350 on mods for it and run mid-14'* in the 1/4. There is some guy in MN selling it, all you have to do is go pick it up. Obviously it isn't perfect, but it is one hell of a car for $700.

But if you have your heart completely set on a Bonneville then I would say you are looking at $2-5K depending on the miles & condition of the car and which model it is.

Talked to the owner today but wouldn't sell me the rims. For a 96SSEi this one is in pretty good shape.

The guy I talked to was pretty nice has a few other cars for sale. This one has 123K on it. He said the HUD didn't work. It also had an aftermarket stereo in it. Didn't look quite right. The interior was in good shape. Had the cloth seats.
