Just a car we had in the shop the other day, i had to snap a shot of it. 1963 Bonne convertible, fully restored, black on white leather. Factory 8 lug optional aluminum rims. 389 with 4 bbl, punched out .030. Very quick for a 5200 lb car. It'* spectacular in person.

Also for sale. Lol

Well i have one other the owner sent me, but it'* ugly. You have been warned. I'll try and get some more. This is during the restoration. Amazing what time and money will do.

That ride is SWEET! I'd love just to drive around in that for an afternoon. You're lucky you got to even deal with that car man.

Yep. If you study the pics for a while you can see how the design has been continued through the years all the way to the current model.

Notice the Pontiac dart, it'* centered in the middle of the grill...same as today'* Bonnevilles. Kinda neat.

Well i wouldn't exactly consider myself lucky to work on it. The customer wanted it converted from a single master to a newer dual master. Of course every line on it rusted and broke so we ended up spending 7 hours on it. It was a bitch. But i have more pics, so enjoy!

More resto:


Here'* more exterior. Hope you like them as much as the first!
