Odd seeing that huge rear license pocket, though.

Yeah looks different, I kinda like the grilles in the fog light holes.

CC: If you look at some of the shots that aren't directly from the rear, you can see the amber.
Bill: I know, I was just bugging you. It'* all personal taste.
Garb: I asked him if those rims were stock or aftermarket so I'll keep you posted.

ga93sle: The picture of the 1970'* Bonneville you posted looks very much like the 1978 Bonneville I had. I had those exact same hubcaps (still have one in the garage, I always picked up extras whenever I could because they fell off all the time). The front end on that one looks like maybe a 1977. The back end looks different, I didn't have the half-circle covers over the back wheels, and the windows on the rear doors were different. The picture you posted may be a higher trim level than what I had (Brougham maybe) and was also very similar to the Parisienne.
My old 1978 Bonnie is still alive and well somewhere around here in California. It sold at auction recently.
