My 1970 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible

Beside my 72 Cheyenne, I am also restoring (a second time) my 70 Bonneville that I have owned for 35 years. This was a very heavily optioned convertible from the factory, and I have added a couple factory options it didn't originally come with. Mainly, Rally Gauges, Super Lift Rear Shocks, Rear Sway Bar, Rebuilt the original AM/FM with electronic guts, Cornering Lights and Power Door Locks added to the original Power Windows.

The first pictures are of the car after the first restoration I did in around '94. I am finishing the engine install and hope to start it over the next few weeks. I bad back keeps the amount of work at less than I would really like to do. I have original seat material to redo my seats, and SMS Fabrics is remanufacturing my original door panels. Other than mechanicals, NOS and repro parts for B body cars are almost non-existent.

The 2nd picture is in Micanopy, FL. The movie Doc Hollywood with Michael J Fox was filmed there. That building was backdrop in some of the movie. The 3rd picture was taken in Bartow FL in front of a house that was used as the home/funeral parlor in the movie My Girl with McCauley Caulkin, Dan Akroyd and Jamie Lee Curtis. Here is another picture taken in Micanopy in front of the house that served as the doctors office/hospital in Doc Hollywood. These are nice locations we have stopped at on antique car tours.
