This is a Yat Ming 1958 Pontiac Bonneville convertible in red, done a number of years back. It is a really nice 1/18 diecast and Pontiacs and Bonnevilles are good-looking cars, especially in bright red and in a high-powered convertible form.

Thanks, John and Bob ! Many years ago our next door neighbor had a 1958 Pontiac and two houses down on the other side, they had a 1958 Oldsmobile. Both cars were gleaming black, I recall, but I was just a little kid. Perhaps they were the only two people who bought brand new GM '58's, as it was a recession year !

The '58 Pontiac is a favorite of mine; it wears the 2-tone so well. Yet another one I would like to see done by Goldvarg in that lower price range.

It is a great-looking car and would make a terrific Goldvarg 1/43, as it makes a fineYat Ming 1/18, Jack. At any scale, these Pontiacs are really nice cars.

I am someone who generally likes cars like this beauty, both with and without the rear external spare.Excellent automotive designs like this Pontiac beauty usually can easily handle spare placement and also convertible/hardtop/sedan styling very well.
