1957 Pontiac Bonneville in West Palm Beach, Florida for sale in West Palm Beach, FL
Vehicle Description The 1957 Bonneville convertible with its rocket-influenced details was the pinnacle of Pontiac design, created by Pontiac to compete with Cadillac.
In the world of domestics from the 1950s, it's hard to get more desirable than the 1957 Bonneville convertible.
Pontiac built only 630 of these convertibles, one for each dealer, to showcase the company's new performance masterpiece:
the first car to come with the iconic Bonneville nameplate, stylishly displayed on the rear fenders with the fuel-injection designation.
Priced at more than double Pontiac's previous Star Chief convertible, this car was the height of luxury.
But even with all its grandeur, the Bonneville was no slouch on the road.
Each of these cars came with a 347ci V8 engine with Rochester mechanical fuel-injection and a factory rating of 315hp, meaning 0 to 60 mph in 8.
1 seconds and a top speed of 101.
6 mph.
Iconic design features include a Dagmar front end, rocket marker lights and an exhaust that exits through the rear bumper.
This car benefited from a frame-off nut and bolt restoration and has been meticulously cared for since.
It comes in the original Kenyan White with Bonneville Red-and-white interior and has Coker vintage-look radials.
There is an accompanying notebook, with pictures of the restoration to demonstrate the attention to detail.
Each 1957 Bonneville convertible came fully equipped with a bevy of standard equipment, such as power steering, power brakes, Wonderbar radio with electric antenna, leather seats, power top and 8-way power seats.
