Nice - I had a mate who had a 59 Bonneville with a 396 big block in it. It did good skids.

That's beautiful - and huge! My knowledge of pre-64 (ish) yanks is zero but I'm drawn to that wink

I have to ask - how big is your garage?

i had a 57 Series 62 Conv for many years, sold it to a friend in 2015, always regretted it, loved the styling, always thoght it looked like a giant Corvette, great car to drive as well, i drove it to Sweden and back twice, ive had one or two Cadiilacs over the years :-)

Fantastic!

I am very excited. I did not expect that i may be able to fulfil my 50's Americana dream before i am 30.

Maybe one day i will have a place with a garage large enough for it! But for now its gonna be a storage company job if it happens!

I'll try and do a proper comparison at some point. It is longer with a smaller cabin

Well Car meet season is definitely starting.

Went to Leeds Cruise for the first time since it moved location, and some lovely folks turned out.

Anyway, thanks Dave Bools for this shot, (which I've tweaked a touch).



Some of the shots really don't give justice to how low the Riviera is, I reckon the roof height has to be within a few inches of my Z4 Coupe.
