1964 Bonneville convertable restore

Would it be nice.......if it WERE a Bonneville and not a Grand Prix on the album cover. The turn signal gives it away.

Thank you so much Chris. That is the same ashtray as mine so that’s the track I need. With your picture i was able to match one on eBay for sale. I ordered it so I should be good. It doesn’t have the plastic washers so I will get some. Without your picture I wouldn’t know what I’m in need of. Now I should be good! Your the man. I will keep an eye out for front light trim you need

Thanks! I found one local but just needed to verify it was correct. I may need to take you up on a rare part in the future though. Thanks, Del

Very exciting Bonneville weekend. We entered two car shows and won two trophies! There were amazing cars much nicer than ours but people seem to love the Bonneville! I invited anyone who wanted to jump in the car for a picture. Again, you would think I threw them a $100 bill. Dozens of people where absolutely thrilled to get a photo in the “Beach Bonnie” 

  My son is beyond thrilled to put the trophies on his dresser.

All that fun and the missing moon cap is on!   Congrat's on the Bonne bling!!!

Del ! your car justA screams cool ride mate !!! no wonder old and young fancy a picture in your girl 👍

 And look at the setting your in!! omg !

 Half of this is your super cool 64... the other half has got to be about you as a owner allowing people to enjoy your car ! 

i love that you have got your kids involved with the 64. i did the same thing with mine and that in itself creates  memories that you, and they, will never forget  

so cool buddy

Those photos are great, and I love the inclusion of the old ads. You've inspired me to screenshot the ad that whetted my appetite to get a Grand Prix.

I'm hoping that when I finally get my old girl on the road that people will show similar appreciation - mind you I'm friendly and sociable to a point, then it's a short road to wishing they'd just go away!

Both of my girls grew up in the show car world.  My son has his own custom shop.  My oldest daughter has her 1st car, a G6 and runs to shows with our tribe.  She is also here as Justa G6.  My youngest has always been a truck girl.  Her husband bought her a 55 chevy project....yet to begin.  And he had flashbacks to his 1st N favorite car and picked up a 69 Rivera to run with the tribe.  Point is....  It's sooo cool to get your son involved.  Our kids will keep our sport and our rides going well after we are gone.
