THIS IS MY PONTIAC BONNEVILLE 66 THAT I BOUGHT ON OCTOBER TH 19TH 2006. THIS CAR WAS ALWAYS STILL TO LAST JANUARY IN NEW JERSEY AND HAS BEEN EXPORT TO A SWISS AMERICAN CAR DEALER AND THEN I TOOK IT BACK. I BOUGHT IT BECAUSE IN EUROPE THERE ARE NOT A LOT OF CAR LIKE THAT. MORE PRECISLY 4 MODELS LIKE THIS ONE.
VIN : 262376E136729

JOB TO DO ON THIS CAR :
- REFRESH BODY PANELS (A LITTLE BIT OF RUST)
- SCRAP OFF THE CHASSIS (RUST BUT NOT INJURED)
- CHANGE STABILIZER BAR BUSHINGS
- CHANGE BUSHING ON THE TAIL OF THE TRANSMISSION
- CHECK ELECTRICITY
- NEW PAINT
- PAINT THE RIMS IN RED AND PUT SOME CATALINA 60 HUB CAP TO LOOK LIKE A SMOOTHIE WHEELS BUT FINALLY I'M GONNA REALLY PUT SMOOTHIE WHEELS BECAUSE HUBCAPS ARE EASY TO LOSE
- PUT SOME CHROME VALVE COVER WITH K&N STYLE CHROME PUSH IN K&N STYLE VALVE COVER BREATHER WITH T-SCREW
- PUT CATEYE COVER ON THE HEADLIGHTS
- CHANGE THE CARB AND I'M GONNA TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TA ADD A K&N AIR FILTER
- TRY TO PUT A STABILIZER BAR ON THE REAR AXLE
- CHANGE THE SHOCKS FOR MONROE MAX-AIR AT THE REAR AND SENSATRAC ON THE FRONT
- PUT AN ORIGINAL JACK KIT
ACCESSORIES :
- WATER TEMP AND OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
- FM CONVERTER
- FLOWMASTER EXHAUST MUFFLER
BUT AN OLD CAR NEEDS EVERYTIME SOME WORK.
THE FINAL PROJECT FOR THIS IS TO DO A MILD CUSTOM.

HERE IS THE ORIGINAL OPTION LIST WHICH WAS HANGING AT THE WINDOW WHEN THIS CAR WAS AT THE CAR DEALER IN 1966

THE 389 CI WITH 325 HP

SEE AND HEAR THE BONNEVILLE STARTING

AFTER 6 MONTHS SO ON 8/9/07
I RECEIVED MY CAR WITH A BRAND NEW PAINT WITH NEW STABILIZER BAR BUSHINGS,NEW BUSHING ON THE TAIL OF THE TRANSMISSION.

AND I PUT THE CATALINA 60 HUB CAP I WOULD THANKS PHILIP A VERY NICE EBAYER TO SALE ME THESE HUB CAPS. HE WAS OWNER OF A 1960 PONTIAC CATALINA WHEN HE WAS 20 YEARS OLD, AND BY THE FACT THAT I'M 22 YEARS OLD, WE CAN CONSIDER THAT THE STORY CONTINUES.

THE CATEYE COVER ON THE HEADLIGHTS,

THE CHROME VALVE COVER WITH K&N STYLE CHROME PUSH IN K&N STYLE VALVE COVER BREATHER WITH T-SCREW AND THE K&N AIR FILTER AND I TOOK THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE THE SPARK PLUGS AND THE CABLES.


THE BEST FOR THE ENGINE IS THAT I SHOULD REMOVE THE ENGINE TO REPAINT IT BUT IT'S GONNA BE FOR A NEXT TIME. SO NOW I'LL DRIVE WITH.

HERE IS A PICTURE OF MY FIRST MEETING WITH MY BONNEVILLE AT EXCEVENEX (74 FRANCE), ORGANIZED BY THE PLAYERS GANG AND I EARN THE FIRST PRICE IN CLASSICS CATEGORY.
