1960 Bonneville Convertible Inteior
 

I have been looking on-line at 1960 Bonneville Convertibles. Most seem to have vinyl bucket seats or vinyl bench seats. I assume these are replacements. The 1960 catalog states that the Bonneville convertible comes standard with leather seating. Can I assume that vinyl was not available and that both standard bench seats and the optional buckets are leather. So the restored cars with vinyl would be incorrectly done. Thanks

1960 Bonneville convertibles had leather standard. Some people did delete the leather but the body tag would confirm it.

Master Parts Catalog shows the '60 Bonneville convertible, Body Style No. 2867, upholstery was leather and imitation leather.

Thanks. That's what I thought. The restorations I have seen use vinyl, no doubt as leather would add to the cost and also maybe they could not get the correct colors in leather. Anyway, a vinyl seat Bonneville is incorrect. I know they are exceptions.

Great info, so no all vinyl option available. Which three codes are for the bucket seats? Thanks

Correct, no vinyl option available. You can see for yourself in the 1960 Master Parts Catalog, Trim Combinations Section at THIS LINK. Scroll to be bottom to see all trim options offered for 1960 Pontiacs and look for Model 2867 (Bonneville convertible).

I don't know which three would be for bucket seats or for bench seats. If it originally had bucket seats, there would likely be an ACC code for it stamped on the Fisher Body Data Plate. I don't have ACC codes for the "modern" (later than '57) Pontiacs, so don't know what that code might be. If you can, get a photo of the Fisher Body Data Plate on any car you are considering. It tells a lot about what was original in the body (only).
