yes i know ..its an candian Pontiac forum but this is a  nice nice story about the my US Boneville, born in south gate, California.

I found at Arizona junky yard in 2007, Kingman ...via facebook still in contact with the first owner`s  grandchild and father ;) (found an liscense tag paper under dash from 69)

The car was completly burned out from the desert sun ..was sitting there from 1990 up to 2007 as i found and bought it ..An rough diamont, rust free , nearly complete ..untouched car. I like the big Poncho coupe with the 389 4bbl 338hp engine ...
