Replying to: andys120 (May 28, 2007 10:54 am) maybe Andre can tell. Sorry, I don't check into this forum as often as I should. It's hard to tell because of the resolution, but I think that red 'vert might be a '67 Bonneville. The taillights on the Bonneville were wider than the Catalina, and stretched in a bit further toward the center. And on the '68 Pontiacs, the outer part of the taillights extended further down, cutting into the shape of the bumper, than the '67. '67 Catalinas have the lettering for "Catalina" on the front fender aft of the wheel, while "Bonneville" had its name spelled out on the rear quarter. Bonnevilles also had fender skirts standard, IIRC. |

Replying to: kyfdx (Jun 07, 2007 7:21 am)  The GT6 is so utterly cheesy, it's depressing. The MG feels like a Bentley Arnage in comparative build quality. But if you are under 5'9", and can live with pieces falling off, the GT6 is a great "starter car" for initiation into the Sacred Way of the British Car.

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Jun 07, 2007 7:32 am) I just meant in the looks department.. My friend let me drive his MGA, and I can barely get my size 10 feet into the footwell, and then hitting only one pedal at a time is a chore.. No MG/Triumphs for me.. |
