I always thought this model was strange. Basically, the Executive was, for the most part, a budget-friendly Catalina on the Bonneville's longer body. The dad of one of my buddies had a silver one. If you can't run with the big dogs, sit on the porch and watch.

Packard did essentially the same thing in 1956 - they took a Packard 400 front clip and mated to a (budget friendly ) Clipper body. It was an odd pairing; interestingly enough though, that too was called "Executive."
I wonder how many other Executives were offered by others besides Pontiac and Packard?
