    Great job! Looking sharp! I hear ya on the window tint - mine is way past legal but the cops seem to be Ok about it, probably because it's an old car.

    Thanks for the feedback guys! The wagon does look pretty bad to the bone just sitting there. I think when i get it done im gonna get some personalized plates that say RIP PMD. I think that will fit the theme of the car nicely. This last weekend i got both the quarter panels finished polishing and put the side moldings on the side, which i think really sets off that big black paint job. Let me know what ya think (y)

    Imagine being dropped off at school in this beast back in the 70's HAHA. Thanks for the feedback guys. I think the red in the molding going down the side of the car really sets it off and ties in the red center caps. Im gonna run a red stripe on the roof rack also to give it a little extra pop. The gate looks beautiful with the red letters saying bonneville.:dance:

    Hey its been a minute since i have posted. IM ALMOST THERE! I still have to get the front seat reupholstered, put the living room back in (haha), bumpers re-chromed, do the lower rocker moldings, source a couple of trim pieces i am missing, do the body work on the endura nose and valance, and figure out where the dead short is in my front harness! Still probably wont see the road until May or June but i sure hope i make that goal. :dancing:

    Talk about a wagon with attitude! Your wagon needs a name. Got one yet?

    Thanks for the positive feedback guys. Nice to know my 2 1/2 years of labor (of love) is paying off. Krash i do have a name. . .The bonn"EVILLE". HAHA. Also gonna get some customized plates to read RIP PMD since Pontiac was wacked by GM/Goverment. I know the old girl aint gonna be no race car but dammit with 475 ft. lb. torque it should at the least roast some tires! :chirp:
