Next up is my 69 Bonnie Brougham convertible, my first darksider that I bought back almost 10 years ago from the second owner who bought it as a demo. The car is from Los Angeles so it was rust free despite 105,000 miles. She is fully factory optioned with just about every including oddities like Instant-Aire, the large grey accessory trunk mat, auto leveling suspension, reel-out underhood light, speed warning buzzer along with all the more traditional stuff like, PW, power seat, power locks, 8track, stereo radio, leather etc etc.
When I got her she was painted a bright aftermarket red and under that color she was painted correct Limelight green but under that was the factory Expresso Brown she was born with. For all the color changes to the body the rest of the car was utterly untouched, original convertible top, 100% original interior down to the rug (still the case today but the leather is starting to rip) and untouched mechanicals.
I painted her 2-3 years ago and doing the engine this year and hopefully the leather once I find a good local upholstery guy.
