Hi there. My name is Jeremy and I'm a Pontiac fan from CT. I've got a 1969 Pontiac Bonneville Safari. It's a mild custom, basically stock but with the body side moldings removed and custom paint and a set of 16" AR Hopster wheels. I've got a few other classic Pontiacs to keep it company though none are near as BIG.
Andy, notice that it has the wide rearend, not the narrow canuck rearend? Always bugged me that we didn't get the same Bonneville features up here. Jeremy, welcome to fleet. Nice mods to the bodywork, and that paint combo is classy.
Thanks for the welcome and the compliments! Here's a couple of more shots, I now everyone loves pics. The first is more or less as it looked when I brought it home in September 2006 or was it 2005? I think it was 2005. The next is my kids giving it a thumbs up when it came home from paint.:2_thumbs_up_-_anima
welcome! as most of the others have said, the paint job is killer! its a really good color combo that looks great on that bonnie wagon\. i LOVE the pinstriping too! im a big fan of that era bonneville. one of my dream cars is a bonnie convertible of that vintage. i just love the look of that year. well, great wagon! enjoy it and the site! -bob
Like, I said- I'm a Pontiac guy so there are 3 other classic Ponchos currently keeping Bonnie company. 1966 GTO, 1969 Lemans convertible and a 1970 Tempest T-37. I've had many Pontiacs in the past too including a 1972 Lemans Safari complete with fake wood on the sides that I sold 3 days before bringing the Bonneville home The Bonneville was purchased with the intent of taking the family across the country to see all the things that make America great. I'm hoping to do the big trip in 2009. I still have to go through the entire drivetrain to make sure it's up for the trip. I also plan on using it to tow my cars to the drag strip.
nothin...absolutely nothin !!!...looks cooler than a Classic wagon towing a Classic 1/4 mile car!!!!! wanna see those picS!! nice sounding collection btw!
Nice Bonneville, Goatless. I too like the old Pontiac wagons. I'm kind of partial to the '67 with its unique front end. (could even put the Grand Prix front clip on it) One day maybe.......
