As part of its mission to reduce fatalities and injuries, since model year 2001 NHTSA has included rollover information as part of its NCAP ratings. One of the primary means of assessing rollover risk is the static stability factor (SSF), a measurement of a vehicle’s resistance to rollover. The higher the SSF, the lower the rollover risk.

  • 1959 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible Acquired January 2011
    1959 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible Acquired January 2011 “The numbers matching concours quality Bonneville on display in Ken’s collection is not only a very rare and highly sought after original rare “bucket seat” car, it is arguably the highest quality, most authentic and most decorated restored 1959 Bonneville convertible in existence today”. Restoration complete by Level One Restorations, Gary Riley, Arvada Colorado for Mike Frey. With less than 50 test miles since restoration it looks like it just rolled off the assembly line at the Pontiac, MI plant, in late May of 1959. The underside is just as Jewel Like as the inside. The known history of this car starts in 2004 when the car was purchased largely intact by Mike Frey from a dealer in the Phoenix area. During the 15 month restoration, every part, bolt, nut, washer and screw was removed, cleaned, restored and/or replaced with mint original or new old stock (NOS) parts. The original inspector paint marks on the chassis were photographed during disassembly and reproduced during restoration, as were firewall markings and stamps, using as a “benchmark” car a ‘59 Star Chief with only 1,656 original miles. It took three donor cars to supply original sheet metal and parts to complete the project. 02-05-2019 All of the engine and chassis parts with date codes were checked in the disassembly process and all parts contained authentic date codes consistent with the car’s assembly date in late May 1959. This is a true matching numbers original bucket seat car in its original factory Sunset Glow color with the exception of the Tri Power set up replacing the original 4 bbl carburetor.

A failure to repair within sixty (60) days after tender of a vehicle is prima facie evidence of failure to repair within a reasonable time. If the condition is not adequately repaired within a reasonable time, the customer may be entitled to an identical or reasonably equivalent vehicle at no charge or to a refund of the purchase price less a reasonable allowance for depreciation. To avoid having to provide these burdensome solutions, every effort must be made to promptly schedule an appointment with each customer and to repair their vehicle as soon as possible.

Originally assembled at GM's South Gate, California plant and delivered to a buyer in the Seattle area. This beauty was restored in 2008 and has no more than 3000 miles in the last eight years. This "land yacht" weighs in dry at 4,030 pounds and is 220.7 inches long on a wheelbase of 124 inches. This was the second year of Pontiac's famous "Wide Track" giving it a width of 80.7 inches. 1960 also was the year of the very distinctive "shark grille". Only 17,062 of this model were produced for 1960. Best guess is that there are no more than 100 left in the country with perhaps 20 in this condition. The list of options: 389 cubic inch V-8 Engine with (owner added) "Tri-Power" (3 2v carburetors) 348 HP Hydramatic Transmission Power Steering Power Brakes AM-FM Radio (original face and action but electronic guts plus auxiliary input for iPod/Phone) 8 Lug Special Pontiac Wheels / Aluminum Brake Drums Dual Exhaust Tinted Windshield Seat Belts Heavy Duty Front & Rear Springs & Shocks Back Up Lamps (yes, they actually were an option !)

  • The Bonneville Coxswains Betsy. Leroy
    The Bonneville Coxswains By Ben Eichelberger Betsy. Leroy. Blackjack. Dirty Ghost. Purple Haze. White Horse. Enterprise. Big Bertha. Liquid Onyx. Drug Runner. Greenzilla. 8-Ball. These labels are all the names of boats. Just like any seaman would bestow a title upon his vessel, so have these monikers been given to different crafts by their owners. Sailors have been doing it for hundreds of years, and the tradition continues today. Names are always given to large watercraft, seemingly out of a need to add character and personification to a faithful machine. A captain or crew member needs a name to call his vehicle in times of trouble and in instances of praise, so a boat needs a fitting title in order for a person to properly curse at it or coax it along. Naming a vessel also makes reference easier; instead of saying, “My great grandmother died on the big ocean liner that sank in 1912,” we have the luxury of being able to relate, “My great grandmother died on the Titanic.” But the boats whose names I mentioned above aren’t boats in the traditional sense. You won’t find an Evinrude motor, a set of oars, or even a mast and sail on any of them. They don’t float on the water or carve across a deep expanse of endless blue. No, these stylish cruisers would sink to the bottom of any river, lake, or ocean in which you placed them. They are called boats, but only with the same critical affection that they are christened with pet names.
