- In Part Two of this exploration of a 1963 Pontiac Bonneville, Steve discovers many special factory options including the trunk-mounted emergency light and vacuum-operated remote deck lid release. And what a huge trunk it is! Part TWO of TWO videos.
People are crazy. Hubcap game is a nice change of pace. Steve your on the fly knowledge is amazing. The bonus is you doing a new video every day. Keep putting out whatever content you choose, I’m going to watch either way.
Much appreciated
@@SteveMagnante I very much look forward to your videos, Steve--- you're amazingly well prepared, and more than a simple explanation, you provide an historical context for the design and marketing... all said, your work is very much appreciated.
I am with you on that comment. Steve do what you want you make even topics I am not interested in, interesting lol. Big fan.
@@SteveMagnante mucho info...old timers had garage in early 70s and he was in the car game since brass era. Any he had hundreds of caps and plates on walls and crates fun as a ten yr old to dig in on Saturday. Hey how about a carb walk and a radio walk for your eps....keep em coming
@@paulwells4203 I agree who knew a train bridge could be so interesting and full of history :)
I LIKE THE HUBCAP GAME. And the Bonneville game. And all the instances of Steve just taking us into the junkyard and teaching us things.
I like the tip game
Hah, just start another channel exclusively for The Hub Cap Game - or Wheel Cover Game, as I would call it...🙄
Agreed, like the Hubcap game
I like everything about this channel
I don't know what "jump the shark" means, but 14 episodes of "The hubcap game" is enough.
Love your RUclips channel - watch it EVERY day.
40,000 mile all original '63 Bonnie, fully loaded, rotting in a junk yard. Tearing up my heart.
Saving the two halves and joining them to a new frame wouldn't be that difficult. And since this was a low mileage survivor I think it would be worth the effort. Either stock or with some custom touches applied. I'd go Gambino Kustoms on it personally.
I wish I had the facilities to reframe it.
I agree, complete enough to fix.
And it's RARE. And probably the coolest GM car that year next to the Riv.
@@UberLummox Yes, especially how it's equipped. Power windows are one thing, but power locks was an EXTREMELY rare option on cars until the late 60s/early 70s. Of course it has A/C, power seat, reverb AM/FM radio, and power antenna as well. Pretty much every option you could get on a '63 Bonnie. I don't believe cruise control was available on this car at the time.
I love the hub cap game! Brings back one of the things that are extremely missed. I'd like to see a version of old rally wheels
Man I’d love to have that car, it definitely deserves to be put on a new frame
I agree, I thought the same thing... put it on a new frame.
Agreed, it deserves a new frame. Whether it be another used stock one or hell even a custom tube chassis. Or is that too ambitious?
Hmmm
I was thinking that car should get a new frame and run the highways again
Don’t cancel the hubcaps! I’m amazed that you have posted so many videos already. This channel is the first thing I search for every morning. Every episode is entertaining.
You being you....can't believe you overlooked the SUPER rare option here of POWER VENT WINDOWS!
I've been a fan of hubcaps/wheel covers all of my 50 years on this planet. My pappy got me started rt off the bat when u was born and donated his collection to my parents to decorate my room with. I'm still a nut for wheels, wheel covers, and hubcaps to this day and was delighted with ur hubcap games. Please return the game to us, haters gonna hate no matter what. Keep up the great work, my friend. 😉👍
Love the Hubacp Game along with all your other videos. Bring it back Steve!
No auto manufacturer can even begin to come close to building anything as comfortable, powerful, stylish and stunning as the early ‘60s GM products. Absolutely worth the effort to re-frame.
The HUBCAP game is FUN, ENTERTAINING, & EDUCATIONAL. Please continue the series. 🤗
I like the hubcap game the days of hubcaps are long gone but it takes me on a trip down memory lane when wheels were part of the identity of the car
I love the hubcap game. Whoever does not like that , can kick rocks.
Bring back the Hub Cap Game! I really enjoy it.
When I was growing up in the '70s, I collected hubcaps.
One USTA be able to tell a car from the hubcaps. I miss those days.
They were metal, and they were worth collecting. I had dozens on my wall hanging up.
My mother used to stop the car for me, so i could get out and collect them.
I loved cars and trucks growing up.
My dad made me a car bad as soon as I outgrew the crib.
Hubcaps on my wall were the only way that I could get to appreciate autos, when I was a kid.
I love the hubcap game, because it reminds me of growing up...when things were simpler.
there's those of us who still have a happy memory of hubcaps, and the individuality they had, because they designed that the same as the rest of the car...
because good design usta matter.
I vote FOR the hubcap game! These are all just shorts, anyway. It's a fun few minutes!
I like the hubcap game.
I enjoy the hubcap episodes. Those that don't aren't forced to watch them.
I really enjoy the hubcap game!
I love the hubcap game! Do whatever you think is interesting; it has worked so far!
That poncho deserves. A full frame. Restoration
You are, indeed, a walking automotive encyclopedia !
This car is too rare and too complete to go out like this. If I only won the lottery.
Steve's like the cool brother or uncle you wish you had and could hang out with down at his shop. You do good work Steve and you have a big heart. Thanks for these daily videos, I can appreciate the time and effort is takes to bring them to us.
Steve what is that car in the shipping container behind you? Is that the 4 door Hemi Coronet everyone is looking for? (Lol)
I like the hub cap game .I like all the junkyard crawls good way to start the day
Love these junkyard crawls.thank you .yes ❤️ the hub cap episodes.
Love all the content including the hubcap game.
I like the hubcap game. Let's keep it!
I often rapidly scroll through my RUclips feed just to look for your hubcap game videos! Also please keep that googly eyed demon as a reoccurring cast member, it’s a major point of charm to the show!
With the front at the other end of the scrap yard, I am guessing the wheelbase is longer than 123 inches.😆
Steve, bring back the Hubcap game, forget the naysayers. Nice change of pace. As my wife says,"variety is the spice of life." Thanks for all you do.
Looks like a car worth saving.
You'd have to fabricate or source a new frame
@@joe6096 Yes. The rest of the body looks good though, unless the floor is also rotten.
@@danw6014 The trunk pan is pretty bad so that’s definitely needed. My guess is with the car sitting directly on dirt after the frame snapped that the floors are bad too.
I love the hubcap game! Anyone who doesn't can opt to not watch. You still give them plenty of other stuff.
That 40,000 body on an Art Morrison chassis, very doable cruiser! A very cool car! It needs to be saved!
It's time to PARK the hubcap game for a while....keep the vehicle vids coming please.
Thumbs up to the cameraman. Great shot of the dash. Keep talking cars and keep on crawling!
Someone has got to save this thing!!
I want more hubcaps as soon as possible
Thank you, thank you, thank you, for putting the Hubcap game on hiatus for a while. A few was fine, but it got old real quick.
The big Poncho’s got enough going for it that I can see someone buying it all, both parts, and looking for a frame, at least I hope so. I see a 66 Coronet nose poking out of a truck box in the back ground.
I like the hub cap game. This opportunity to go thru these hub caps is a one time deal, I do not think there is another van fill with gems that tell the store of automotive history so well. Please keep going till the van is empty or as you see fit. Thanks Steve!!
Replacement frame and that Bonnie is definitely a builder. What's that peeping out of that truck body back there behind ya Steve?🤔
I'm fine with the hub cap game and the deer head that follows Steve everywhere. 😁
More hubcap game. It makes a change occasionally and I like it.
Steve you let the cat out of the bag! Now we gotta see that mopar in the storage trailer behind you!
That could still be a builder!
Hubcaps, cars, van, big trucks pickups, if your talking im listening Steve.
l like the hubcap game, but I'm old enough to remember when upgrading your hubcaps or wheel covers with ones more stylish was a thing. I put 13" Buick Special wheel covers on my 8 year old '61 Falcon. Probably a lot of people never had that experience and really aren't into it.
Do what you think is best, Steve, after all you have to earn a living!
The hubcap game is great . Your knowledge is impressive on all things automotive
Dirt floors are no joke. I know of three gremlins that have dirt up to the door sill, some higher. Still entombed as the barn slowly creeps down on them. The woodchucks do a number on them. I don't think they be half as deep without them. Sad.
Admittedly I didn't watch all but the last hubcap games. I found your knowledge to be unequivocal as usual and appreciate that. The issue other people are having is change makes them uncomfortable. They marry to a format and that's it for them. Me, I can listen to people who are experts (as you are) all day regardless of the subject inside their expertise. I support ya either way.
Great vid again Steve. Still loving the deer head with the googly eyes that follows you around!
I hadn't said anything, I figured if people liked the hubcap game, then they could watch it. But since you asked, I'm not really a fan of it. I love your knowledge and enthusiasm, and really do appreciate your videos; you do what you enjoy.
It breaks the heart to see that Bonneville.
I'll add another vote to liking the hubcap game. In my opinion it doesn't matter if your videos are about cars or trucks or vans or buses or just hubcaps. Whatever the subject you'll make it interesting and the vast amount of knowledge that you give will keep me coming back to know more.
Hello Steve. Can you speak to the differences between the Canadian and American versions of the Pontiacs? Greetings from Eastern Ontario
I'm not sure why anyone would want the hubcap game to go away. All of your content is great. Keep doing what you do and I will keep watching.
What a cruiser that would have made. Loved the roofline on the GM 2 door hardtop cars of that vintage. That is a rare car with all those options. Loved the ‘62 Grand Prix best of all.
They are sharp cars.......
Deserves a resto
I like the hubcap game. Now that I am of a certain age, I find myself correctly identifying a lot of them. How time gets away from us all.
I really hope someone decides to save this car, seems heartbreaking for it to have survived in such great shape in so many areas.
The 2 spring straps in the trunk are the hold downs for the bumper jack. Beautifully designed car.
Such a original and i'm sure beautiful car when it was new. so sad to see how the miserable Rustachusetts weather has eaten away at it.
P.S. I love your hubcap game.
Definitely love the hub cap game.. I also enjoy the junkyard crawl.. Very informative trivia..
Of all the cars you have featured so far in the wrecking yard, that Pontiac makes me the saddest. It would be nice if someone could make it whole again...
Never tired of the HCG. Maybe expand to mag wheels?
Just thinking the very same thing!
@@hughjass1044 carbs radios interiors 2
Never heard of vacuum trunk release before. Always learn something from ya Steve...
Put a 10 year old boy inside one of those trunks in 85° temperatures armed with a couple wrenches through the rear seat area and you risk him becoming enamored with the use of said wrenches. Wonder how I would've turned out if they would've had a key back around 50 years ago.
I like the hubcap game, but that deer head freaking me out.🎃
i shed tears for this one
The hubcap game has not jumped the shark!! Don't listen to the negative Nancy's! Lol. Great video Steve. 😎
I like the hubcap game and watch it every time it is posted...I do enjoy your content.
Put the hubcaps on hold for a while. Love ALL the rest!
That car is still restorable. Swap for another rust free frame
Love the hubcap game Steve, keep them coming until you clean out the truck. That Bonneville is loaded, I also saw power seats and the speed minder, would live too see it roll through Mechums or Barrett-Jackson in the future
Definitely keep the hubcap game, please!!!
All hail the hubcap game! It's fun and informative.
Your Johnny Cash ! One piece at and time man thanks for you're hard work intertaining me. Its all good man!
What a shame, that is such a beautiful car. Someone please save it, and put it back together.
You should build it Steve it would be a incredible car all you need is a roadster shop chassis.
I watch your channel every day. I like the hubcap game just as much as the other content. Thank you Shane and Steve, and keep up the great work!
Hubcap game was great...that Bonny needs to be saved...the power options...the interior....damn.
I really like the little starter hotrod behind the Bonnie. I'd love that. Less to "restore" lol
I Love The Hubcap Game! It is nice to have some days showing us all the cool-ass vehicles and mixing in the hubcap game. Like many of your subscribers, I have a modest collection of old hubcaps and enjoy seeing what you find. Keep up the Awesomeness of diversity in what you do, most of us Love it.
2 Thumbs up for the hubcap game!!!!
Way back when I had a 62 4 door and a 63 Catalina coupe. I loved that 63. Rode like a cloud. I still have one of those fancy trunk lights around here.
I love the early sixties Pontiac & Buicks. C'mon Steve ,put her back together.
Love the hub cap game dont quit.
I enjoy the hubcap game
That Bonneville deserves a second chance, very impressive with all the unique options, I hope someone can rescue her!
My dad had a 63. I would drive it around the area when he was gone. I sure thought I was cool.😎. His car had a 400 out of a 67 and factory buckets.
I love the Pontiacs. I hope a '63 owner comes to rescue all of those accessories on that 2-piece Bonneville.
Any '67 Firebirds up there?
That car needs to be restored simply for the "before" and "after" photos at the car show. There's a rust-free frame somewhere.
Amazing parts car. Lots of goodies inside the that old girl.
excellent condition body and interior for any old car let alone a car sorrounded by wrecks. the front clip, frame, engine, the "easy" parts of the restauration are left to do, the rest of the car is in this simple package :D
Power vent windows too! That was a $5k car! Star Chief also shared that wheelbase.
Big fan of the hubcap game, Steve!
That car is worth saving. As you said that blue is sharp. It's a true beauty of a car. If it wasnt so far away I'd be calling the gentleman about that,surely you could find a frame somewhere.
all parts of cars deserve there shine.
Love the hubcap game. Havent seen one for 66 SS chevelle. Thanks for wonderful Videos.
The FireChief was one step down, Have seen a ouple of those in my area,Greatvideo, Thumbs up
