If you could have a Bonneville other than the one you have, what would it be? What year mainly? I would choose a 1966 Bonneville. I saw one the other day. So awesome!!

Yeah, a 59' would be quite a find. Man, thats a huge car. A 66' is about as big

Default 66

Yeah I like the 66 models also. I think those could come with the 8 lug wheels which really made those things sit up tough.

The 'full size' pontiacs are really very collectible. Several vendors carry reproduction parts for them. (Ames & Performance Years to name a couple).
