    Very nice, I remember a person on my paper route had this same color '65, but it was a Catalina. In my opinion, the Bonnevilles were the nicest of the big GM wagons, they had all the cargo strips, and Pontiac also had the extra flap to cover the gap when the tailgate was opened. That was dropped in '69 with the 2 way 'gate.

    I would love to get a set of those cargo strips that only Bonneville's had - no other GM wagon used them.

    Memory lane, although I clearly remember it being a 66 ( I remember thinking how cool the tail lights looked) this wagon colour and rite down to the hub caps was the first wagon ride I ever had. Was a friends Dad's car, no 3rd seat but who cared, I remember a bunch of us kids hanging out the back window on the HYW singing "Smoke On The Water" heading to lake Winnipeg
