Description : Our St Louis Showroom is proud to offer 1972 Pontiac Bonneville. This white on black Beauty is in great overall condition and needs nothing but a new owner. The current owner states he is the second owner and has had this vehicle for 10 years. During that 10 years he has worked to restore this vehicle to its former glory. It doesn't take long to notice that lots of time and care has went into this car. When he purchased it, he went through the car first replacing all of the fluids and necessities like tires, brakes, hoses, etc. Then he went to work making sure everything on the car worked. Including the air conditioning which has since been upgraded to a vintage air unit. After this, he works on the paint, body, and interior.
The paint on this Bonneville has a great shine to it and is free of any major blemishes. The Vinyl top is also in very good shape and still maintains its deep black shine. Inside the car you will find that the seats, dash, and carpet is all very well preserved and shows very minimal wear and tear.
The engine is a 455 with a 4 barrel carb with plenty of power and response. Mated to the engine is a Turbohydromatic automatic transmission that helps get the power to the rear wheels. It shifts smooth and feels very solid as well. All in all this is a very good cruiser that was cared for its entire life. If you are looking for a great classic to hit the local shows in, give us a call to make this one yours!
