Hi all!

Been awhile since I have been active but I have been logging in quite a bit over the last few weeks and trying to read up on everything and everybody.

Anyways, I added another Bonneville to the household this weekend. This used to be Andrew's (Kicksock, here on Pontiac Bonneville Club) '93 SSE. We have done a bit of work on this car at my house, but Andrew has done the majority of work at his place. I always told him if it ever came time to sell to let me know. He contacted me a few weeks ago and asked if was interested. I have two daughters who are of driving age (but neither has their license yet), but this was the perfect opportunity to get a car for them (and me, occasionally) to use and to save/preserve another older Bonneville

I have to thank Andrew for taking such good care of this Bonne. COnsidering it is 18+ years old, she really shines and is in wonderful shape.

No plans to do anything to it other than normal maintenance and routine repairs.

Enjoy a few pics of the new addition to the family. (We'll do some engine bay shots once I have a chance to detail the engine compartment.

Bob,

Many thanks for helping me out over the past several years. I hope you and your girls enjoy the car as you have definitely earned it! I'm very happy that I found a good home for her.

My plan is still to bring the '97, but.........I may just bring the '93 for a change of pace.

150K. Feels strong and should go for awhile, but I know/expect things will need to be repaired/replaced as more miles get added.

Nice work with that second picture. The upgrade of the radio and ECC is nice. Always wondered if the 95-99 ECC unit is plug and play with the 92-94 cars.
