    Hi everybody! I'm Anders from a small town in Sweden
    I just bought myself a station wagon and I thought I'd might register here
    so I can find out more about my new car.

    As you can tell by my username the vehicle is a 1966 Pontiac Bonneville.
    A nine passenger station wagon that originally comes from Nevada, USA.
    It was exported from the desert state and imported to Sweden in 2008.

    One of Pontiac's best looking wagons. Love the 8-lug rims. Welcome aboard.

    Welcome.

    I've noticed more than a few cars from here over in Sweden.

    Yours looks to be a sweet original. In fact the view reminds me of the advertisement for that car.... including the awesome 8 lug wheels!

    I liked all of the stacked headlight Pontiacs, but the '65 and '66 models were the prettiest of the lot. And the wagons in the full sized lines looked so elegant, in any price range. I love yours, and welcome!

    :Welcome: aboard Anders.
    What a great find. Those big Pontiac wagons are excellent cruisers. I always liked the Pontiac 8-lug wheels, too. (y)

    :cheers:

    Sweet! I have a '64 9 passenger Catalina. Great looking wagons.

    Out of curiosity, why does it say 63 GRAND PRIX on the bottom of the picture for a '66 Bonnie?
