Pontiac offered four series in 1961, in addition to the new compact Tempest. Only the entry-level Catalina and top-flight Bonneville series included convertibles, and there was a $400 price differential between them. For the extra $400, the Bonneville customer got more wheelbase, more pounds of steel, foam cushions, a padded dashboard and all-Morrokide upholstery.
This Bonneville is PHS documented and equipped with a 389-cid V-8 engine with Tri-power carburetion and a four-speed manual transmission. It includes full ownership history as well as the original title from the first owner. It had a new top and interior installed in 2011 and has been well-maintained since. It also features desirable eight-lug cast wheels with thin whitewall tires, power steering, a power top, an AM radio and clock. It is handsomely finished in light blue with a dark blue top and a tri-tone silver, white and blue interior. Arguably America’s most popular road car in period, you’ll understand why as you explore the highways in this example.
