Looks to be very original in the pictures and probably is!  Love the taillight design.  With a stuck speedometer, some old, old, old tires and whatever else it's going take some time and some money to get it road worthy.  It's a cool ride but at a lofty 30 grand makes it an expensive proposition.

$30,000 grand and no title????????

[GregLaR 2,722]

Yes, great car, very nicely optioned too and the Agena Blue is good on this body.  I'm appreciative of Pontiacs from this era, they are very solid cars and nice drivers but like I've said before, if you're going to ask all the money, you can't use the words "except for".

And I see several on this one.

A shame really because, with a relatively minor investment, the seller could make this a top money car.

This 1968 Bonneville has been for sale for quite a while. The seller's advertising has become somewhat more aggressive lately. 

[GregLaR 2,722]

Yes, this will be a very hard sell at $30K or anywhere close to that figure.

I think you could buy a nice convertible of the same era for $10K less.

I can only think of one way that car sale would work for a lot of money: it sells to someone else from CT and you don't need a title for cars that old in CT.

 

But even then, not having a title would still reduce the value a lot, because the buyer will likewise face a very limited market whenever he decides to sell. No, I'm not in the market for this car, but I still get a little upset with the, "THERE MUST BE SOME ONE-IN-A-MILLION RICH IDIOT OUT THERE WILLING TO PAY THIS MUCH," approach to car sales. Like PlymouthCranbrook says, eBay is loaded with sellers like this. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if this car is also on eBay.
