...at the shop I freelance at with my auto electrics. Not sure if owner purchased or if it's a client. Will get details. Found it very distracting.

More pics. Owner of the shop I freelance at purchased it.

It is a lovely time capsule. Today's task was tail lights. Repaired sockets and overhauled switch. Next time wonderbar radio repair.

Thing's growing on me majorly.  RGM

 Had a large dent on upper rear fender where something heavy fell on it from a mezzanine. 

Body guys repaired, blended in. For the life of me I cant see where it was.

What an absolutely gorgeous car, and seems loaded too! You cannot get much better than a convertible Bonneville with the uber-rare and very sought-after optional bucket seats!

Resurrected long dormant top pump on Sunday. 

Managed to snap cover into place. Certainly a sight to behold.

Rather anticlimactic sitting down in working mans Laurentian to go

Home after 

Robert.

Pontiac made some of the most stunning cars with those interiors being highlight.

This car is beautiful. The interior is just excellent in style and color combination. You can't beat the 60s Bonnevilles and Venturas for interiors.

 Right on, Carl.  Pontiac was at the top of their game during that era.

Hey Robert try and find out if that car ever lived in Toronto circa 1960/61. Someone a couple blocks away from me in the

east end of Toronto had the identical carincluding the eight lug wheels. You just never know if that car survived.

Even at 14 riding my bike by it I thought they were amazing cars...smile...and I even noticed the different tail lights at the time.
