Pontiac Bonneville Coupé (1959)

Louis Kalendruschat

Kickdown's Take

by Louis Kalendruschat

This Pontiac Bonneville is a classic road cruiser: with a total length of 5.63 meters, a 6.4-liter V8 engine, a continuous front bench seat, and no B-pillar, this coupe embodies American driving culture in its purest form. The well-maintained vehicle was last serviced in May 2025 and also features a sealed underbody. This rare Pontiac is probably one of a kind in Europe!

    Technik: 1958 verlor der Bonneville seinen exklusiven Status, war nun auch mit den regulären Vergaser-Motoren der Marke lieferbar und wurde im Preis um über 2000 Dollar reduziert. Als Extra konnte der Motor mit drei Registervergasern (Tripower genannt) für 93,50 USD bestückt werden und leistete dann 300 bhp bei 4600 min−1 oder mit der noch erhältlichen Rochester-Einspritzung für 500 USD, welche dann eine Leistung von 310 bhp bei 4800 min−1 bereitstellte. Zum Cabriolet für 3586 US-Dollar kam ein Hardtop-Coupé für 3481 USD hinzu, bei dem die B-Säule fehlte. Es wurden im Modelljahr 3096 Cabriolets und 3586 Coupés verkauft. Das Modelljahr erhielt dem Zeitgeschmack folgend vier Frontscheinwerfer analog zu den anderen GM-Marken. Ein stärkerer X-förmiger Rohrrahmen erlaubte einen tieferen Einstieg. Die Federung erhielt vorn neue Kugelgelenke, für die Hinterachsfederung war als Extra eine „Ever-Level“ genannte Luftfederung verfügbar. Die Motorisierung des Bonneville basierte auf dem Star Chief, das Fahrwerk wurde vom kürzeren Pontiac Chieftain verwendet. LG Tom
