  • Auto appraiser Jason Phillips flew into Salt Lake City Utah and inspected this 1959 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible for sale for one of his long term clients. It's a non-frame off survivor car, with some undercarriage rust holes that could be addressed or left alone. Catalog interior looks very nice, compromised only by the aged survivor dash components. Despite small flaws and some lower panel swelling, older repaint still presents well from a short distance, with age of some original trim showing.

    I was born in January of '59 and grew up with this kind of low wide car style. 1959 was a year of important firsts for America, the first US launched satellites, successful jet travel, the first transistor IBM 1401 mainframe computer and of course the new GM line up of which this Bonneville is an amazing example. I love the interior, it must have seemed so futuristic at the time!

      On this particular one you hear the mix of custom Magnaflow system + exhaust leak. It's sounds amazing even though you don't wanna have an exhaust leak. But again sounds like an industrial grade big block of the machine that builds bridges.

    This car saved my life. Years ago, my friend, Gary owned it and let an unlicensed, inexperienced young girl drive the car She ran it almost straight into a 3' oak tree at 60 mph. The front bumper was way under the car, license plate unreadable. The Bonneville had enough metal to absorb the impact and and still afford resistance. All four unbelted passengers survived the crash. I had 15 stitches in my scalp because my head hit the strut on the top. Gary had facial laceration and a concussion. The girls were sore but unharmed.
    BTW, quit driving using both feet.
    At 5K on a rebuild, the engine probably needs the tappets adjusted.

    @fleetwin1 7 лет назад +4

    A nice driver, perhaps a parade car....Would love to read your actual report and know what you valued the car at...The engine didn't sound too great after just being rebuilt, perhaps just the exhaust leak you mentioned. The underbody really concerns me though, seems like a heavy application of undercoating to hide some cancer.

    On the drive gear selector there is the letter R no one could ever explain to me why that is. The only thing I know is used to really take off and kick in the four-barrel when you put it in R on the gear selector.

      I had a 65 Catalina in the early 70's. I loved that car! I drove it from Vancouver across Canada to Montreal.The only time I took my foot off the gas was when I had to get food & fuel and when some 6' 4" Mountie pulled me over to ask me how fast I thought I was traveling. A little more than 100mph to be honest, Sir.
      That's correct,from here on keep it below 90 he replied. I was shocked he was so calm & reasonable about the situation.The Pontiac never missed a beat was as smooth riding as any super luxury European sedan.
      The " Wide Track Pontiac " handled great,stopped well & never broke down.I had radial tyres ,Michelins , installed even though everyone said not to.They did improve the ride, handling & gas mileage absolutely.
      I sold that Catalina when my first child was due.With 89,000 miles on the clock & only a few cosmetic blushes I got $1260 for her and still regret selling my Wide Track Pontiac.
      PS. The convertibles were babe magnets,!No kidding,I met my beautiful (still) wife because of my Pontiac caught her eye!!!.
