PICs - Daily Dose of Diecast...Thursday
A couple of years ago I thought it would be cool to showcase the 1957-1959 Pontiac Bonneville models that I have in my collection. I put together a quick diorama...and here they are.
1957-1958-1959 Pontiac Bonneville, FM & DM

WOW! Stunning John. The transition is 'size' / style is interesting too.

John, you continually outdo yourself.

LOVE THESE PHOTOS! Pontiac is my favorite of all GM marques.

AWESOME as always John! I'm guessing you don't have the DM 58 convertibles.

Oh no...I do. The Hdtp is my favorite of the three. (pics)
That day I just thought the green one accented the white of the 57 & 59 better than the other two.
Here they are

Ok. I just thought the red/white 58 convertible would have went better with your 57 and 59 convertibles. JMO. But love your photos none the less. 
I love the 58 convertibles, with the exception of the God awful butt warts on their rear-ends. But they are beautiful cars.

I thought so too. I started out with that one. It wasn't working for me.
I stopped after a few shots and switched to the Hdtp. I might still have those photos, I'll have to look.

If you find them, post them. And know John, your photos every day are a bright spot. I enjoy them!

Passed on the '59 to wait for the 2-dr HT. I guess I have a long wait...:)
