1960 Pontiac Bonneville 2 Door Bubbletop in White & Ride on My Car Story with Lou Costabile

If you enjoy the videos and would like to Sponsor me on Patreon, my Creator link is www.patreon.com/MyCarStoryWit...
On "My Car Story" we're in the West Suburbs of Chicago on 6-14-22.
We're looking at a 1960 Pontiac Bonneville 2 Door Bubbletop in White Paint with the Factory 389 CI V8 engine.
The car's Owner is Rick Bill. Rick’s had this car since 2019. Rick shares this was his good Friends car, and unfortunately he passed away. He purchased the car and when they were growing up they would go racing in a 1960 Pontiac with # 22 on the car. So this car keeps his Friends memory alive. This car is a survivor with under 37K original miles on it.
ENJOY!

GM used commonality of parts. I have often wondered, is there any real difference between a Pontiac 326 and a Chevrolet 327?

[@hairylarry6167]

@@johnnyjames7139 That is a great question J.J. I'm going to look that one up. The Pontiac used that 326 in a variety of their cars.

[@rsstrazz6261]

@@johnnyjames7139 2 different engines. Pontiac 326 was a version of their V8 that had more displacement sizes than you can shake a stick at, most popular the 389. Chevy's '327 is, of course, based off their legendary small block.

My parents bought a new '60 Bonneville Vista in the same color exterior and interior as that convertible. I was a little boy in kindergarten and so loved that car, especially on long vacations. That trunk was unusually huge compared to the other GM cousins, especially the silly Buick rear end. The air conditioning, which was so necessary in that all-glass four-door hardtop, could conquer even our sweltering Texas summers. I have so many photos and memories of this car. My parents usually traded about every 3 years, but they loved this car so much that they only replaced it in 1966 with a gold four-door Bonneville--that was also great. The most beautiful dashboard this year of any of the GM's except possibly Cadillac. Thanks so much, Lou!

A childhood friend of mine had one of these. He showed up at my house in 1968, and that engine was tired, and smoking a lot. While idling there were no knocking or extra loud ticking sounds, so in my amateur opinion I thought valve stem seals had gone bad. We found the parts we needed at the second parts store we called, friend stayed overnight, and the next day in my driveway and with about sixty bucks of Craftsman tools we got him all fixed up. Changed the oil, did a tune up by cleaning the plugs, checking the timing and re-gapping the points, and he was off. No more smoke. I guessed right. Two years later he had the engine rebuilt, and a couple years after that he had the whole car restored. He still has it, properly licensed and insured.

The reason why the 1961 Pontiac Bonneville had a bubble top is because Men and women of the day wore hat's, so the bubble top gave the people wareing hat gave them the extra clearance too ware a hat. I can always remember going to the Detroit auto show in Detroit with my dad and uncle, and my uncle when he saw a car that he liked he always gave it the hat check, if he could get in and out of the car with out knocking his hat off he would give thumbs up . And that is why he purchased the Pontiac Bonneville, sweet car.😁👍🇺🇸

We had a 1960 Parisienne station wagon in that Sierra Copper metallic colour. It was special ordered in Calgary by a dealer principle for his wife. She only drove it for the few months it took him to get one with power windows, the way she wanted.. Apparently, he had ordered what he wanted instead. My father bought it as a used car, but ir hardly had any miles on it. My father was told it had a special order 409 under the hood. It looked like the pictures of a 409 I have seen. Whatever it was, it was very rare and had huge torque. We used to pull big travel trailers on summer holidays through the mountain passes to BC like nothing. Took a lot of power to do that with a 2 speed automatic. My dad sold it to a neighbourhood friend in 1963, as he was being transferred to Ontario that summer. .

We had a 1960 Parisienne Station Wagon in that metallic copper colour. It was a Canadian car. Parisienne was the top model in Canada. It was special ordered by a Pontiac dealer owner in Calgary. It was a gift to his wife, but she wanted power windows, so my father bought it as used car with very low mileage. My father was told it had been special ordered with a 409. I was only 8 years old at the time. All I can say is the valve covers were that same shape as the pictures of 409’s I see online. It only had a Powerglide 2 speed automatic, but we had no problem passing cars on the uphill passing lanes through the Rockies, while pulling a large holiday trailer. It would be a really rare car to own today.

One of my all time favorite cars.

Happy to read this one is a favorite of yours :-)

Thanks very much, Lou and Rick. Beautiful car. There aren't words. Lou, please slow down and focus on the dashboard details and the brochures. I wasn't able to stop the video and have much clarity. Rick, please don't install headers, the mufflers are more than enough departure from OEM.

[@loucostabile]

Hi discerningmind, You're right, sometimes I'm so excited I'm going too fast. Thank you for the reminder to slow down. I'll do my best. Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this car. You're welcome, Lou

Lou - How much was this car new? - Looks like $4,276.01 Lot of money in 1960 Another great video !!

[@loucostabile]

HI Robert, Seems that's the right price. Happy to read you enjoy the video :-) Lou

One of my uncles bought one these brand new, but within a few months he had taped aluminum on the upper half of the inside of the rear window. His kids were getting sunburned while riding in the back seat. The next year he sold it. The roof line looks great, but is totally impractical.

[@lonnyjaw]

Yeah Lou, you nailed 'er again! Pontiac to me is so special because of the well built attention to detail and performance. Too bad they had to pull the plug on Pontiac. Another score Lou, Thanks!

[@loucostabile]

Hi lonnyjaw, Happy to read why you enjoy the Pontiacs :-) Glad to read this one scored with you. You're welcome, Lou

[@tomtbi]

😎 brochures and trunk treats!!

[@loucostabile]

Nice when the Care Taker has those items with the car.

[@sabba_dabba8649]

The styling is very unique when compared to other GMs. I like how the rear is kind of like the tail end of an arrow. A bunch of styling cues lend themselves to the marque's namesake

[@loucostabile]

Hi Sabba_Dabba, Happy to read the styling details you enjoy with this car :-) Lou

[@Wixom2200]

Superstar CAR. I AM really starting to like these cars. That front end is sweet.

[@loucostabile]

Happy to read you enjoy this "Superstar CAR" :-)

[@eleven57icare]

Thanks Lou for another wonderful presentation. While I don't think the '60 Bonny was the prettiest of the '60 GM's but this one is beautiful..

A family in my neighborhood was friends with our family when I was a kid. They had a 60 just like this, same color. Our familys got together once and went on a Picnic near the beach. We took 2 cars, I rode with them in this car. At the time we had a 55' Rocket 88 Oldsmobile 2 door Hard top. Our Olds looked cooler than this Pontiac. You should do a review on a 55' Rocket 88 if you can find one.
