I have for sale a very good running and driving 1963 Pontiac Bonneville convertible. I purchased the car from the original owner of 50 years. This Bonneville comes with the original invoice and Pontiac Inspecto-Plate. The 389 engine starts right up and runs strong with automatic trans that works well. The car rides nicely also. The odometer reads 71217. The power top works well and is in good condition. Nice top boot included.
The original interior is in remarkable condition for its age. The interior is fairly rare with bucket seats, factory console, and floor shift automatic. The car also has the factory manifold vacume guage that works. The driver's seat has a couple of rips/seam separations and the dash has the common (4) cracks. The front/reat of the dash is very good. The guages are clear. The carpet is worn. The door panels are really good and the back seat is very good. The rear seat side panels are good too. The underside of the top is nice.
The car has power steering and power brakes that work well. Good glass. The chrome is presentable and the stainless is too. The rear bumper does have a shallow dent. The engine sounds good and I have seen no leaks. The automatic trans shifts well and brakes are good. The car has manual windows that work. The radial tires are roadworthy and I have driven the car several times this summer with no problems.
The body is pretty good for 50 years old, but the rear quarters have had past repair. I am no bodyman, but I can see evidence of repair. The trunk floor has also been attended to in the past, but seems solid. The driver's side floor pan also has a small patch present. The balance of the floors and frame appear to be very good. The bottom edges of the rockers appear very good. The frame does have 1 to 1 1/2 inch holes present on the outer surface of the frame rail just in front of each rear wheel. This area does seem very solid there though. The car does ride well. Underside has the usual surface rust and some scaling.
Everything on the car is currently working except the clock. The radio works, as does: wipers, battery charge guage, fuel guage, horn, headlights and dims, all turn signals and their green arrow indicators, brake lights, heater and defroster and 3-speed blower, oil pressure guage, temp guage, speedometer and odometer. The radio is a JVC stereo cassette. I have not tried the cassette. Forgive me if I have ommitted any small feature either working or not.
Overall, this is a very useable and enjoyable 1963 Pontiac Bonneville convertible that runs and drives well. The car looks great with its white body and teal-colored interior, especially with the top down and the soft convertible boot snapped on. The car has plenty of power and sounds and rides good. The real wood in the dash is even in fair shape. A good 60's Pontiac convertible driver.
Please feel free to ask any questions. Personal inspection is available and encouraged. Sold As-Is.

1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?
Mon, 08 Sep 2014The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.
Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
